What is wrong with TEGR?

Not really an LLM question. I've been playing around with TEGR trying to figure out the field equations to solve everything (forces and matter formation). I haven't succeeded or anything, but the structure just seems more elegant than a lot of other theories. I'm trying to figure out why nobody is working on it. Or rather why nobody had found working field equations in it yet. Is the tetrad the wrong formalism, or is the search space effectively unbounded?

Thanks.

Fable 5 is available until the 7th

Hey everyone. I've been using LLMs to set up quick python scripts to test ideas. I'm currently working on something in the f(T) TEGR category.

I don't want to give specifics, because nothing is worth discussing at this point everything I have is already known. However, if anyone has tricks for keeping an LLM on task without losing the current theory, I would love to hear them.

My computer is decent for GPU simulations provided they are smallish. And I am using Claude Code CLI to run things. My primary issue right now is that Opus 4.8 kept hitting attractors of prior art and abandoning the current work even when explicitly asked not to.

Fable 5 is "working" for now, but I don't want to squander it because I won't be able to afford it at its API cost.

Any scaffolding/harness tips to use LLMs effectively would be appreciated. But don't expect me to be at PhD understanding personally before the 7th.

EDIT: I hate this sub. The more I work on the open problems in my own theory, the more I see nobody sharing their LLM musings is actually trying to solve anything. The end result is crackpot physics mixed with sci-fi buzzwords. It's like if a PR firm dressed up nonsense to sell it.

Does anyone have access to Fable 5 yet?

It was allegedly supposed to be rereleased today, but I cannot access it in any official interface at work or on personal accounts. Does anyone else have access or is this a delayed release?

What happened with TEGR?

Toward the end of his life Einstein spent about 20 years working on an alternative GR using torsion instead of curvature. It ended up with some extra terms that could be reoriented freely which made them useless for calculating energy. But the GR equivalent part worked. The extra terms he hoped would correspond to the other forces. Did anyone continue this work? Do we have a more modern or complete theory or did the whole theory branch die with him?

A theory on LLM physics

I posit that one day someone is going to use a model sufficiently advanced that it actually does real physics, share the theory here in their excitement, and this sub will implode.
