The LK-99 Effect

In July 2023 a copper and lead based supposed room temperature super-conductor, a material that could revolutionize technology, was proposed by a Korean laboratory, and this lead to a scramble of informal publications by authors from that laboratory trying to claim the work and some quitting their jobs. LK-99 was a dud. This process of prominent scientists losing their sh*t over something which most others in their field believe isn't true while the public is riding the hype train is referred to in some circles as "The LK-99 Effect".

The rumor is that Sam Altman was fired from OpenAI because of his believes about a artificial general intelligence. This is a clear example of the LK-99 Effect

Brostekian Effect

The phenomenon is a type of synchronicity you experience when you are talking about or thinking about something, and then you see/hear it immediately afterward. This can be seen on a billboard, heard on the radio, written in a newspaper, etc.

"Man, I was talking to Jake about Willow... and as we were talking about her, Taylor Swift's song 'Willow' started playing on the radio. The Brostekian Effect is crazy!"
