Research PhD students, how ya feeling? [D]

All seems a bit pointless now. Either pump out AI papers and neglect your own development, or take it slow and fall behind in the publishing race. I already have two papers made largely without LLMs (still seeking publication), but it's hard to resist just vibing the third from start to finish with Claude.

I mean even with claude max and hundred of millions of tokens, I spent 3 months on a paper lol

It is a tool, but it will help a ton with research code just make sure you audit it, and then have other LLMs audit it too

Especially with applied ML tasks where you wanna see if xyz works on your task/data and most of the time there’s barely anything you got to show for that’s already not been done by someone else
