A short YouTube commentary by LARRUZ (Feb 13, 2025) describing a new ChatGPT 'deep research' feature that can surface Cold War–era research papers, especially Russian work from the 1960s–70s. The speaker recounts a user prompt asking the model to find unusually novel but understudied Soviet-era papers and to expand their ideas using modern science, yielding reports on obscure technologies and speculative topics (e.g., Bongert's visual pattern puzzles; 1966 mirror matter theory).

Did you know you could dig up and analyze all the research papers from the Cold War with the new ChatGPT feature that they shipped? As of interesting prompts for deep research, I want to share this one from Carl here and he said Find the most interesting Russian research papers from the 1960s and 70s that have extremely novel ideas not fleshed out or further studied much since then. Further expand on these ideas, drawing from modern discoveries or innovations in either related or unrelated fields. Connect the dots across the whole scientific literature as much as as possible. Voila. And then you get a report on all the technologies explored in Russia in the 60s and 70s during the Cold War that never really led anywhere. If you want something a bit more out there, well, there you go. How about a 10,000 word long report on Bongert's visual pattern recognition puzzles and some good old mirror matter theory from 1966.
