Look at how actual researchers are currently using the tools: they'll generally use the LLMs to create slop papers, sometimes supported by auto-formalizations, just like OpenAI does. Then they will go through the lengthy process of digesting the results, turning the often incomprehensible and poorly organised outputs into something that humans can understand and build upon, they will then give seminars on the results, further helping with dissemination. Doing so still requires expertise, and probably will for a good while.

So yes, that is exactly what they should do. Alternatively, if they are too lazy or incompetent to put in the effort themselves, do what AGMAI proposed and fund a third party to help out.
