I asked it to tutor me in Hopf algebras and it did a remarkably good job in the back-and-forth of explaining ideas to me in a very explainable and interesting way that I could understand. I then asked it to write something for fun, and it wrote a cool little fantasy story (that was generally high level but what can you say for a very short writing window lol).
I then asked it to write a paper detailing the main character's final battle with the final sorcerer in terms of Hopf algebras. Some parts of it are basic/trivial but it fits so perfectly that I think I'll never see magic systems the same way again.
What's crazy is that that paper as the capstone of our tutoring session helped me understand Hopf algebras much better than just the tutoring session alone. My mind is completely blown at how good this thing is, and this is from someone who is a self-professed LLM skeptic. ChatGPT I used once or twice and it was cool. This is crazy and over my threshold for what I'd say is 'everyday usable'. This is going to change so much in a way that we cannot predict, just like the internet. Especially as it gets much more commoditized.
Here's the full paper here so I don't drag y'all through the twitter post of me freaking out about it. Its temporal consistency is excellent (referenced and fully defined accurately a semi-obscure term it created (the N_2 particle) 5+ pages later (!!!!)), and it followed the instructions of relating all of the main components of Hopf algebras (IIRC that was roughly the original prompt) to the story. This is incredible. Take a look at the appendix if you're short on time. That's probably the best part of this all:
