Can AI with Pre‑1905 Knowledge Become the Next Einstein? DeepMind Examines the Missing Step

The article reviews DeepMind’s “LLMs can’t jump” paper, arguing that even if large language models are fed all scientific knowledge up to 1905, they still cannot recreate Einstein’s breakthrough because they lack the abductive jump from physical intuition to new axioms, a capability that requires interactive world models and physical priors.
