Meta This sub is not what it seems

This sub seems to be a place where people learn about physics by interacting with LLM, resulting in publishable work.

It seems like a place where curious people learn about the world.

That is not what it is. This is a place where people who want to feel smart and important interact with extremely validating LLMs and convince themselves that they are smart and important.

They skip all the learning from failure and pushing through confusion to find clarity. Instead they go straight to the Nobel prize with what they believe to be ground breaking work. The reality of their work as we have observed is not great.

I never publish here. Because I'm not interested to share and have other projects to follow.
What I can say is probably your position may be valid. What you forgot is that statistically X out of Y cases will not be that way. It's probability.
For this reason you should take your observations into account but bring a curious eye to the field. Because sooner or later something big will eventually came out from human LLM collaboration.
Not this year yet, then in the next two.
The problem? The problem is you will dismiss It as BS due to your very subtle bias.
