I was pleased to attend the AAG 2025 meeting and the International Geospatial Health Research Network (IGHRN) session in Detroit from March 24–28, 2025. Throughout the event, I observed that many sessions focused on GEOAI, highlighting innovative AI models—such as explainable machine learning, deep learning algorithms, and large language models—applied to geography and health research. However, should AI serve as the primary benchmark for research and publication? A discussion suggested that it may be not. At times, AI techniques may be over popular, potentially leading to their abuse or misuse. Back to the begainning of research, it should begin with clearly defined questions, followed by the application of appropriate methods, whether AI-based or not–the most suitable approach is preferable.
