as someone who don't know anything about anything I've been bugging GPT4 with the questions about this material, if you are curious to see the conversation https://chat.openai.com/share/50bceb29-7042-40aa-bc13-a97443...

please, issue corrections in the comments if you have a second

I think this conversation demonstrates a misunderstanding of what GPT4 can and cannot do. You can get useful background information about DFT and molecular simulation, but definitely no first-principles reasoning about molecular properties.

good to know, thank you for the note! maybe there can be a prompt that can investigate molecular properties?

GPT can't run simulations or break any new ground.

makes sense

This is not snark, just trying to understand but: why would you expect a text autocompleter to answer questions about cutting edge material science?

just curious and trying to understand better what text autocompletion is capable of
