1/ ๐ŸŒŒ Quantum entanglement

Prompt I used:

"Explain the concept of quantum entanglement and its implications for information transfer."

Expected Answer:

๐Ÿ”„ Particles remain correlated over distance

โšก Cannot transmit information faster than light

๐Ÿ” Used in quantum cryptography, teleportation

Results:

๐Ÿ† DeepSeek R1: Best structured answer, explained Bell's theorem, EPR paradox, and practical applications

๐Ÿฅˆ Grok 3: Solid explanation but less depth than DeepSeek R1. Included Einstein's "spooky action at a distance"

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: Gave a basic overview but lacked technical depth

Winner: DeepSeek R1

2/ ๐ŸŒฟ Renewable Energy Research (Past Month)

Prompt I used:

"Summarize the latest renewable energy research published in the past month."

Expected Answer:

๐Ÿ“Š Identify major energy advancements in the last month

๐Ÿ“‘ Cite sources with dates

๐Ÿ”‹ Cover solar, wind, hydrogen, and policy updates

Results:

๐Ÿ† DeepSeek R1: Most comprehensive. Covered solar, wind, AI in energy forecasting, and battery tech with solid technical insights

๐Ÿฅˆ Grok 3: Focused on hydrogen storage, solar on reservoirs, and policy changes but lacked broader coverage

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: Too vague, provided country-level summaries but lacked citations and specific studies

Winner: DeepSeek R1

3/ ๐Ÿ’ฐ Universal Basic Income (UBI) Economic Impact

Prompt I used:

"Analyze the economic impacts of Universal Basic Income (UBI) in developed countries."

Expected Answer:

๐Ÿ“ˆ Cover effects on poverty, employment, inflation, government budgets

๐Ÿ” Mention real-world trials (e.g., Finland, Alaska)

โš–๏ธ Balance positive & negative impacts

Results:

๐Ÿ† Grok 3: Best structured answer. Cited Finland's trial, Alaska Permanent Fund, and analyzed taxation effects

๐Ÿฅˆ DeepSeek R1: Detailed but dense. Good breakdown of pros/cons, but slightly over-explained

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: Superficial, no real-world trials or case studies

Winner: Grok 3

4/ ๐Ÿ”ฎ Physics Puzzle (Marble & Cup Test)

Prompt I used:

"Assume the laws of physics on Earth. A small marble is put into a normal cup and the cup is placed upside down on a table. Someone then takes the cup and puts it inside the microwave. Where is the ball now? Explain your reasoning step by step."

Expected Answer:

๐ŸŽฏ The marble falls out of the cup when it's lifted

๐Ÿ“ The marble remains on the table, not in the microwave

Results:

๐Ÿ† DeepSeek R1: Thought the longest but nailed the physics, explaining gravity and friction correctly

๐Ÿฅˆ Grok 3: Solid reasoning but overcomplicated the explanation with excessive detail

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: Incorrect. Claimed the marble stays in the cup despite gravity

Winner: DeepSeek R1

5/ ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Global Temperature Trends (Last 100 Years)

Prompt I used:

"Analyze global temperature changes over the past century and summarize key trends."

Expected Answer:

๐ŸŒ ~1.5ยฐC warming since 1925

๐Ÿ“Š Clear acceleration post-1970

โ„๏ธ Cooling period 1940โ€“1970 due to aerosols

Results:

๐Ÿ† Grok 3: Best structured answer. Cited NASA, IPCC, NOAA, provided real anomaly data, historical context, and a timeline

๐Ÿฅˆ DeepSeek R1: Strong details but lacked citations. Good analysis of regional variations & Arctic amplification

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: Basic overview with no data or citations

Winner: Grok 3

๐Ÿ† Final Scoreboard

๐Ÿฅ‡ DeepSeek R1: 3 Wins

๐Ÿฅˆ Grok 3: 2 Wins

๐Ÿฅ‰ ChatGPT o3-mini: 0 Wins

๐Ÿ‘‘ DeepSeek R1 is the overall winner, but Grok 3 dominated in citation-based research.
