Astrophysicist David Kipping had a podcast episode a month ago reporting that LLMs are working shockingly well for him, as well as for the faculty at the IAS.[1]

It's curious how different people come to very different conclusions about the usefulness of LLMs.

The problem with these long videos is that what I really want to see is what questions were asked of it, and the accuracy of the results

Every time I ask LLMs questions I know the answers to, its results are incomplete, inaccurate, or just flat out wrong much of the time

The idea that AI is an order of magnitude superior to coders is flat out wrong as well. I don't know who he's talking to
