ChatGPT o1 preview + mini Wrote My PhD Code in 1 Hour*—What Took Me ~1 Year

After about 6 prompts, ChatGPT o1’s preview and mini create a running version of the code described from the methods section of my research paper. I do want to emphasize that while the skeletal code does emulate what my code does, it did use its own synthetic data I asked for it to create as opposed to real astronomical data that would be used in a real paper. Nevertheless, the potential it has is incredible, to effectively accomplish what I struggled for about 10 months in my first year of my PhD. I am excited to apply o1 for other use cases. Thank you to everyone who tuned in live last night! #ai #openaio1 ##chatgpt Research Paper Link:
