citing things

I spent a big part of today working on finishing up a paper with Megan Bedell (Flatiron). My job was to fill in missing references. I'm still not efficient at this, more than 30 years in to my astronomy career.

  1. Just tested how good is ChatGPT with that.
    Not too terrible (at least with a popular topic):
    Prompt: "List all the required references for a paragraph talking about Dark Matter halos, their density profiles and adiabatic contraction"
    Answer:
    Some possible references for a paragraph about dark matter halos, their density profiles, and adiabatic contraction include:
