I provided a link. Are you… not able to read?

What do you think I mean by “valuable” and why would that equal “getting a check”?

Fucking bizarre. This might be the dumbest conversation I’ve participated in this week.

I’m actually paraphrasing Terence Tao and some of the top mathematicians on the planet: pre-AI, math researchers discussed and shared ideas about their work. Now they are increasingly afraid of getting scooped, and you can see why.

Non-mathematicians don’t realize this, but proofs aren’t intrinsically valuable outside of what they mean about the community capable of creating them.

Scientific discoveries without scientists could still be pretty useful to society. Not so about mathematical proofs without mathematicians.

Solving math proofs with an AI is like doing art with a robot. There are practical problems and calculations the AI could solve, but they’re ignoring those to attack the mathematics community and destroy the discipline as a whole.

This means people will stop sharing work and insights with each other, which has never before been the case.
