    Running the title though Google and looking at the discussions around it in various corners of the Internet seems to indicate it’s utter bunk.

      Yeah , on top of how ad-infested and vague the article is and on top of the discussion I’ve seen about this paper elsewhere, it looks like at least one of the authors, Adrian David Cheok, doesn’t have any physics training according to his ORCID bio or his his wikipedia page, but has dabbled in AI according to the latter.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if this is just some AI schlock.

        What’s the end game for these people? Is it hubris? Stupidity? Do they not think anyone’s gonna notice - and even so, how do you expect to fly under the radar with “solution to the unified field theory.”

        the lead author, srichan, appears to have co-authored a number of papers on ai for telemedicine and some medical materials over the last 12 years, so it’d be a little weird if he took a break to solve quantum physics
