Introduction: Manuel, working at the intersection of physics and AI

How did you find PF?

Via chatGPT actually

Hi everyone,

I’m Manuel. I studied physics originally and now work mainly in AI. Recently I’ve been combining both interests in an open project called TheorIA (Theoria Dataset), which collects structured derivations in theoretical physics, formatted so they can be used for reproducibility, machine learning, and education.

The idea is to create a high-quality, open-source resource that organizes physics results in a structured way. I’m looking forward to learning from the discussions here, sharing ideas, and getting feedback from people who care about physics as much as I do.

Welcome to PF.

Cool. I wish you lots of luck. Current LLM's are really bad at physics.

Thanks Dale! Indeed! And in fact I am not surprised: most of the existing physics datasets are either compilations of papers, books, wikipedia articles, which are quite unstructured. Ask to frontier LLM to derive for example the black body radiation law, and will do a lot of mistakes until it gets it right.

Your work sounds really interesting! Where could I find the project (out of curiosity)?

It's probably best to send the OP a DM to ask for the link. I'd like to keep it out of the open
forum for right now. Thanks.
