I don’t know… Travis Kalanick said he’s doing “vibe physics” sessions with MechaHitler approaching the boundaries of quantum physics.
"I'll go down this thread with GPT or Grok and I'll start to get to the edge of what's known in quantum physics and then I'm doing the equivalent of vibe coding, except it's vibe physics"
- 4ndrewl 1y agoHow would he even know? I mean he's not a published academic in any field let alone in quantum physics. I feel the same when I read one of Carlos Ravelli's pop-sci books, but I have fewer followers.
- mattgreenrocks 1y agoHe doesn’t. I think it’s the same mental phenomena that Gell-Mann Amnesia works off of. That interview is practically radioactive levels of cringe for several reasons. This is an excellent takedown of it: https://youtu.be/TMoz3gSXBcY?feature=shared https://youtu.be/TMoz3gSXBcY?feature=shared

- lukev 1y agoThis says more about Kalanick than it does about LLMs.
- astrange 1y agoQuantum physics attracts crazy people, so they have a lot of examples of fake physics written by crazy people to work off.
- glhaynes 1y agoIf I were a scammer looking for marks, I'd look for people who take Kalanick seriously on this.
