Claude 独立完成一项尘封 23 年的黑洞物理计算
一个挂了 23 年没人算完的物理推导，这次由 Claude 基本自己推完，物理学家核验后确认结论成立。它不是又一个刷 benchmark 的故事，而是 AI 第一次产出经人工确认的基础物理新知识，做科研的人可以直接参考这条工作流。
一名物理学家用 Claude（文中称 Claude Fable 5.2）完成了自 2003 年以来无人算完的黑洞形成计算，并经人工核验确认结果成立。
背景是 1983 年 Stephen Hawking 和 Don Page 证明某类宇宙升温时黑洞会像水到沸点一样突然形成，但该方法只适用于大宇宙。2003 年物理学家写出了小宇宙情形所需的计算步骤，因推导冗长繁琐，23 年间无人完成。这次由 Claude 主要独立推完，结论是小宇宙中黑洞同样会突然形成。
这是经人工核验的新基础物理知识，主要由 AI 产出，对科研工作流是一个值得参照的案例。
Claude Fable 5.2 cracked a black-hole calculation that physicists had left unfinished for 23 years.
A physicist has already checked the work, i.e. this is new knowledge in fundamental physics that came largely from an AI.
In 1983, Stephen Hawking and Don Page showed that when a certain kind of universe heats up, a black hole forms suddenly, like water hitting boiling point, but their method only worked for large universes.
In 2003, physicists laid out the calculation needed for tiny universes, but it was so long and tedious that nobody finished it, until Claude did it largely on its own and found that black holes form suddenly there too.
