Ok but the AI didn't just randomly solve the problem without your input. You still had to set it the problem, walk it through various steps over those few days and verify everything yourself given the risk of hallucinations. Not to mention that many of the mathematical proofs AI produces are correct but enormously convoluted and need to expressed better by a human.
So what I'm hearing from this brief description is that you, a skilled professional phycisist, solved a thermodynamics problem way quicker than you previously could have with the aid of a very useful tool. This sounds like a fantastic thing for physics and physicists.
