Reminds me of this old but excellent visualization of the human knowledge frontier.

> Claude and GPT are good at science, but they are not scientists

For many jobs, the task is not the job.

A step in the good direction, Science will definitely look similar to this.

But this guy is too high on AI, verging on AI psycosis. A more sober version is what Science will look like.

em dashes are normal, load-bearing is esoteric but real ... i just never heard *-shaped AT ALL until Claude came to town

Sounds like Baader–Meinhof phenomenon. Because "-shaped" for me is an old phrase.

Do you mean the Anthropic logo or the Claude logo?

It's claude-shaped science, so I meant Claude logo :)

The way this made it to the top of HN is suspicious. Flagged as such. The article does not have much to grab onto.

it’s an article on furthering scientific research from what is arguably one of the top-three AI research labs in the world. i’m unsure what else you expected from HN
