LLMs could systematize DL research with cheap, small-scale 24/7 experiments
JoshPurtell · x · 2026-11-15
The author argues that unlike mathematics—where LLMs must push the human frontier of abstraction—deep learning research can advance via many small, compute-light experiments. LLMs could transfer meta-strategies from physics/math and run enormous numbers of full-scale experimental studies and ablations around the clock.
