  • Absolutely this. Ai can help you learning new stuff but you still have to have the motivation to learn. I recently had to write a parser for an init file in C (which I have never used before) so I thought to myself “let’s ask an Ai, it should get something this basic done right”. Yeah, it didnt work. So I started actually diving into how C works, writing the first lines and also editing an existing Parser I got to fit my use case. If I encountered an Error I tried to fix it and if I couldn’t I would ask an LLM why this Error was happening. This way I learned way more than if the Ai would have actually given me something that worked out of the box. Especially the rewriting and debugging part taught me a lot and the AI was very useful, since it acted like an interactive teacher that could spot the Errors in your code and explain why they appeared.







  • A recent discovery in gravity is that while gravity is a ‘‘constant’’, it actually fluctuates from place to place,

    I guess you are referring to the c9ncept of dark matter?

    To anyone who does not know what dark matter is:

    Dark Matter is the “solution” for differences in the real gravitational force a star has and how much gravity it should have based on calculations. Dark matter basically is matter that does not interact with light in any form (and therefore can not be detected) but still emits gravity.


  • Unexplainable yet. We may be able to understand how Gravity works.

    But of course you are right, there are absolutely things that can not be explained. It is (very probably) impossible to explain why our nature constants are the way they are or why forces act the way they do. The easiest answer to why they are the way they are is to say “They are this way, because if they would be a little bit different we could not ask this question”. This sentence implies, that we live in some form of a multiversum and that there are multiple universes existent (in which form doesn’t matter) but it is impossible to detect them.
