conversation with GPT-4 on black hole QM

I had this conservation with GPT-4 on aspects of black hole quantum mechanics. I kept it largely non-mathematical. This is interesting, and it suggests a level of processing that is complex. An AI system was fed ephemeris data on the appearance of the sun, moon and planets in the sky and it

GPT-4 hits the IQ ceiling (Theory of Mind, Mensa, Asimov)

Schrödinger cat states of a 16-microgram mechanical oscillator

The April 20, 2023 issue of the journal Science reports that researchers have been able to put 10^17 atoms with a mass of 1.62*10^-8 kilograms (about the mass of a grain of sand ) into a Schrodinger Cat State. It is by far the most massive object ever put into that bizarre state. I found it
