Currently Playing: Is AI a Good Research Assistant? [Wading Through AI - Episode 9]

From https://www.computerenhance.com/p/is-ai-a-good-research-assistant Recently, I gave a talk called The Root of the Root of All Evil (https://computerenhance.com/theroot). Like The Big OOPs, it was a research-intensive talk, so Demetri and I decided it might be a good benchmark for how well the frontier models do on historical research. In this episode of Wading Through AI, Demetri runs the major models on a query designed to reproduce the top-level research necessary for my talk. We evaluate how well they did, and speculate on the usefulness of current AIs for this kind of research. (Demetri has provided a download of the research reports on his website.
