[2026-Sep] Update - This paper has been refuted by ChatGPT 5.6-sol with these comments:

"You are a genius scientist researching a universal formula to calculate the plasticity of any compound or element. Invent an equation that can calculate the plasticity of any known element or compound to within 5%. Once you invent it test the theory against twenty random elements or compounds. If it is out of tolerance amend or discard the theory for a new one until it passes."

• Grok 4 worked on this problem for approximately 11 minutes, and was unable to complete it.  It was asked to continue.  After an additional 7 minutes it found a solution that was accurate within 2%!  18 minutes to come up with a new theory on plasticity.
