How do you generate "all the latex" in a latex document with "natural language"? What specifically did you generate? The whole research paper? What "boilerplate" are you talking about?
- llm_trw 2y agoAre you familiar with LaTeX? I was writing a lot of rather complex augmented matrices. Instead of having to manually type them in with all the formatting done by hand I literally gave ChatGPT a python nested list and told it what to subscript, what to bold, etc. In previous papers I have done this by hand if there's only a few matrices that I need to show, or by writing a script to auto-generate them in whatever format I need if there will be many. This time I just talked to a chat bot and got it working in minutes. Then it turns out I made a mistake at the start. The fix was just to tell it what the error was and propagate the changes. It did that flawlessly.
- bertylicious 2y agoYes, I'm familiar with latex. That's why I was asking. Using an LLM to reformat/restructure your matrix data makes sense to me and this was the missing detail from your original post. I would be too paranoid about hallucinations and opt for a script still, but that might just be personal preference.
