if Aristotle’s deductive method offers certainty and Bacon’s inductive method presents discovery valuing observation; which is more important to science today? certainty or practicality?

Since Bacon opposed Aristotle’s deductive method in favor of induction, do you think combining both methods could have produced more reliable knowledge, or would it have weakened his approach?

In the article stated belief's of Bacon one of which is “acquiring knowledge and understanding the natural world, humans could gain control over it and harness its resources for their benefit." linking knowledge with the power to act. Could this idea be interpreted as implying that knowledge inevitably leads to control and potentially even manipulation? In that case where should the ethical considerations or boundaries of scientific knowledge is gained, research, and experimentation lie?

In the age of prevalent usage of artificial intelligence, would Bacon agree that this could also be a way to attain knowledge or would hinder it?

Bacon stated that “knowledge is power”, meaning he regarded knowledge as a tool for gaining power. Does this imply that those who lack access to knowledge will remain powerless? In what ways do you think this challenge can be overcome?
