This is the kind of idiocy you get on Threads. I think the main purpose of pursuing a PhD is to develop your thinking, research, and communication skills, which you can't do in 45 minutes on Claude.
Post on Threads from unfairclaudeprompts

BREAKING: Claude can now help you RESEARCH any topic better than a PhD in 45 minutes. For free.

Here are 8 prompts to master research: 1/10

Synthetic expansion of non-coding DNA reveals physiological constraints on genome size
Genome size varies widely across eukaryotes, largely because of differences in non-coding DNA, but the physiological consequences of this variation remain unclear. To directly test how non-coding DNA ...

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.
