most of this science / math stuff seems pretty obscure and not all that lucrative...

Obscure discoveries can lead to practical applications though. It's still impressive that it did work that might be expected of a grad student, at least.

Oh it's absolutely impressive, much more so than coding capabilities. I can understand most of coding / algorithms but I can't even understand the questions that these AIs are answering in math and physics...

Just not clear to me how it will lead to profits- I don't think the AI that discovers a new physics phenomenon will own the practical applications of those discoveries...
