Meanwhile I'm over here using Claude 3 Opus to do trig and calculus problems as well as generate the LaTex representation of the equations. It's not necessary to be 100% in my case (purely for fun) but I follow its reasoning and it's pretty consistent at least enough for "orders of magnitude" and first order effects. I was gonna post some of the chats about physics but probably nobody cares.

I did do some followup research. The math in its complex reasoning "tracks" but when I asked it to do 4 digit x 4 digit multiplication, it got most of it right except for a weird random digit error in the middle (?!) of the correct answer, lol. Now I want to run CLUTTR against Claude since it seems nobody has published that yet.
