There are physicists at OpenAI. You can verify with a quick search. So someone there clearly knows these things.


I'd be embarrassed if I was a physicists and my name was associated with software that had phantom masses appearing and disappearing into the void.


Why don't you write a paper or start a company to show them the right way to do it?


I don't think there is any real value in making videos other than useless entertainment. The real inspired use of computation and AI is to cure cancer, that would be the right way to show the world that this technology is worthwhile and useful. The techniques involved would be the same because one would need to include real physical constraints like conservation of mass and energy instead of figuring out the best way to flash lights on the screen with no regard for any foundational physical principles.

Do you know anyone or any companies working on that?
