Having a productive discussion around a paper requires at least reading and understanding the abstract, and the most successful content on HN (sadly) is content where people can jump in with an opinion purely from reading the headline.

Anyone know of any forums that are good for discussing papers?

ML research shows up on the front page if it shows splashy claims or results. Mundane cockroach papers that advance the field one nudge at a time aren’t that interesting for the average reader.

Cool to see the sentiment visualized though.

There doesn’t seem to be one bit of original research in the post, and no explanation of the data or conclusions. For example, what exactly does it mean that the papers “held up”, and how exactly did Claude reach that conclusion? If you don’t know, we can’t trust the data. If you do know, it should be in the post.

As it is, the post is almost devoid of information. Everything was “I asked Claude”. There’s no value here (aside from some saved tokens) above just crafting a prompt and saying “here, ask your favourite model this question”.
