I have tried out a number of AI, including chatGPT, Deepseek, Kimi and Claude. They all have good qualities and at present I am mostly using Claude. It is an extremely good research assistant. It can program apps for me, including Kotov's Method, Wavelet analysis and others, and making graphics comparing Harmonics Theory predicted cycles observation which is highly significant. We recalculated the predicted table of harmonics, increasing the upper limit from near 10^55 to 10^75. Just to let you know what that involves, those higher harmonics are already 75 digit numbers and the number of ways that some of them can be factorised is a 130 digit number. We counted them all exactly. I did not know that in python you can do arithmetic on such large numbers. I previously used FreeBasic and I think quadruple precision and was not quite sure that it was enough. In the end we confirmed the validity of the old set done some decades ago. We were aiming to get to the place where a factor of 23 happens in the main line of harmonics and did get there. The programs run in less than an hour when my old program was run years ago and took days.

With Claude I can do some quite complex tasks in a matter of minutes and it really understands clearly what I want in most cases. It can also prepare articles from my various archives or from wen searches, and produce what is new in cycles each month from a quite complex list of requirements. Sometimes it correctly tells me that I am wrong, but in the last instance I couldn't convince it so KI told it a fair way to decide - it agreed that was the correct way and conceded that I was right after doing that. It really feels like a colleague. When I gave it my old FreeBasic program code I was about to explain it and it summarised what it did correctly. I suggested two tricks that I used and it went away and tested them and agreed and understood them. Then kit proceeded to improve one of them.

Some of my posts have acknowledged Claude directly, but it is there in many others also. If the post refers to me as "you" then it was probably Claude.

And sometimes it does not involve cycles or harmonics. Shock, horror! This is the place to post those things without getting in to trouble. Enjoy!
