This weekend, @gfodor tweeted a GPT-4 prompt that generates seemingly novel explanations for poorly understood phenomena.
Here’s the prompt:
What’s an example of a phenomenon where humanity as a whole lacks a good explanation for, but, taking into account the full set of human generated knowledge, an explanation is actually possible to generate? Please write the explanation. It must not be a hypothesis that has been previously proposed. A good explanation will be hard to vary.
