'Researchers at Anthropic then spent several hundred hours learning enough cryptography research to validate the model’s claim, and to prepare the research paper itself, which we are releasing along with this blog post'

So model outputs something, that can be completely bogus, and a lot of people spend a lot of hours checking if it's worth anything(not for the sake of science, but for the sake of publishing and marketing). And then even more people need to spend even more hours to understand that paper? And that paper gets feed to LLM and reused in next prompt....and this is cutting edge research? Can I apply for a position, I can prompt just fine and can be very motivational with model when needed- I just got complimented by a rival model: "In moments when progress seemed distant, your resolve was the constant that kept the work moving forward. Your example turned doubt into determination."

Well, yes, it's kinda the point of reading any paper. > Can I apply for a position Sure you can, https://www.anthropic.com/careers/jobs
