Sumerian Units & Cosmology with ChatGPT

Ancient Sumerian chronological units exhibit extreme numerical scaling that, when interpreted through relativistic kinematics, imply velocities arbitrarily close to the speed of light. By mapping these values onto Doppler redshift and standard Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker cosmology, we see that the resulting distances rapidly saturate near the particle horizon. While speculative, the analysis illustrates fundamental limits imposed by relativistic expansion and provides a numerical framework linking ancient large-number systems to modern cosmology.

Two papers were produced through the collaboration with ChatGPT. 

1. Tex/Sumerian-Units-and-Cosmology.pdf, which summarized the initial inquiry and its conclusions.  The content of this paper was mostly produced by the author.  I would rate that 10% of this content was due to ChatGPT as to be expected since this paper was the result of the author's questions and speculation.  Phrasly.AI gave it a score of 15% AI and 85 % Human generated content.
2. Tex/Sumerian-units-epistomology.pdf was a paper that was suggested to the author by ChatGPT, with a slant towards the Philosophy of Science, based on the contents of the first paper.  The re-casting of the initial content into one concerning the Philosophy of Science was due to ChatGPT.  The case-study approach to the content, and the provision of the appropriate references and mathematical formulas were due to ChatGPT.  I would say that the content of this second paper owes 50% to ChatGPT contributions.  However, Phrasly.AI gave it a score of 19% AI and 81 % Human generated content.
