And here are the current measurements of Starlink brightnesses by Mallama and Cole 2025: https://academic.oup.com/mnrasl/article/544/1/L15/8251664?login=false
Everybody is too bright. OneWeb manages to halfway make it below the recommended limit, but everybody else pretty much sucks.

Call it AI if you somehow make an LLM discover actual new physics (and please not just something it scraped off of the internet.)
This will probably not happen for a few more decades at best... we are probably far from AGI, and anyone telling you otherwise is trying to raise their share price.
