It already has. There are plenty of positive contributions of AI around.
<https://cacm.acm.org/news/scientific-applications-of-generative-ai/>

If you want more specifics, look at AlfaFold 2.
"Demis Hassabis was awarded the Nobel Prize for his groundbreaking work
in protein structure prediction. This research utilized artificial
intelligence models, particularly AlphaFold2, to predict the complex
structures of proteins, which are essential for understanding biological
processes."

The reason for your exasperation is that most of the journalistic
coverage you read about is the negative stuff; fake videos & photos;
made up scientific papers with fake references; Fake news; etc.

The good stuff takes longer to develop. And it is not very sensational.
The reason why most journalist like to criticize  AI is because they
feel threatened by it. AI is capable of doing what they do - only
better, quicker and cheaper.
