24: And current state of AI for physics: Polymath and friend of the blog Steve Hsu celebrates “the first research article in physics where the main idea comes from an AI” - he says he got GPT-5 to produce a novel insight into “Tomonaga-Schwinger integrability conditions applied to state-dependent modifications of quantum mechanics”, which passed peer review and got published in a journal. But fellow physicist Jonathan Oppenheim calls it “science slop”, saying the result is somewhere between unoriginal, irrelevant, and false, and should never have been published.
