About this episode
What happens when a physicist challenges an AI to tackle a calculation at the frontier of theoretical particle physics? We explore Matt von Hippel’s nine-loop challenge and how Claude, working with a specialized scientific setup, applied existing methods to a demanding scattering-amplitude calculation. The story is about precision, code, and keeping a complex mathematical workflow on track—and what that could mean for AI as a research partner.
