No, the goal is documenting the convergence pattern itself. We did use LLMs as research tools — acknowledged in the paper — but the cross-domain analysis and citation mapping are human work.

I'll explain how we got to this point. I had previously mentored my friend, Robin Macomber, in math & physics for several years. Robin Macomber independently discovered a variation of criticality math and asked me to evaluate. After due consideration I recognized a pattern: his work echoed that of Kenneth Wilson's renormalization group theory, which I'd previously studied. I then conducted a detailed survey of all academic fields that touched on criticality (using an LLM!) and found, to my great surprise, that this same math had been independently discovered many times in many domains. So I wrote a paper about it.
