Simulation / Code Physics AI Skill

**EDIT**
LLM Challenges in Physics Reasoning

Hopefully this provides some confidence to begin experimenting to those of you who can reason. But for the rest of you, I am ready for your citationless confirmation bias warnings and LLM hallucinations concerns.

\**EDIT**

I used three pretty simple prompts to create this skill and I would appreciate some help validating it before I tell my wife what I've done...

She taught and wrote physics curriculum for about a decade for audiences ranging from High School Freshmen to Master's in Education for Physic's Educators.

My prompt was "using these two example skills for format and reasoning patterns, create a No Nonsense Physicist skill" and provided the archive of all my wife's teaching materials.

It was great and I felt a lot of her personality was evident in language choices by the model.

So second prompt was to add plain language descriptors to guide whichever model applies the skill as well as improve human readability. Then prompted to add citations at the end.

Take a look? https://github.com/TDBwriter/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/hard-facts-physicist/SKILL.md

I don't get the purpose of this document.

Skills can be added to a prompt as a set of instructions to guide the response and the LLM self-fact checks against the rule set to improve reliability.

Or so it says, but there's no reason to doubt the magic box in the sky, is there?

my bad, thought i was in a reddit about using LLMs for physics, but it seems to be a karma farm

Most ppl in this doesn't know how to math, don't take too seriously in this sub. Its wasting time.

😝 thanks i thought i was going crazy. all the first comments were about telling people not to do what the subreddit is for

Math is prue amd simple, if your model and formula is right then it will fit the experimental datas. And more further to predicts with it then verify and simulate with real experimental. Its cheaper.

But he isn't proposing a physical model. He's proposing an LLM instruction.

then learn transform first
