After using Gemini 2.5 Pro, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and GPT-5 for highly novel theoretical neural networks research, I must say that, at least for my case, GPT-5 is the clear winner. The "Ph.D. level" claims are correct (and of course, like any human Ph.D., it also makes stupid mistakes now and then).

I wasn't familiar with that concept at all, but it seems very relevant to the subject indeed, thanks!

Do you realize the abysmal difference between being a user (and "looking into it") and doing decades of research and, in fact, creating the very foundation for those things?

The hatred coming from the butthurt anti-AI mob is now comparable to that of far-right scumbags.

It's one thing to dislike the technology, but the way they're responding to some people here is sick to say the least.

If you confidently assert that LLMs (or anything else besides yourself, for that matter) are or aren't conscious, you're wrong.

I dream of a social network that's like a generalization of that. For any topic, you have to prove knowledge before posting.

Here we go, another thread full of geniuses and experts that know everything about how AI is just autocomplete. I'm glad to grow my block list, tho.
