Total retard here. Explain why mathfags are so upset about AI solving old problems. Is it just about gatekeeping, or does it affect the quality of the work?
>>
Worshipping AI companies for "solving" math problems is a form of anti-intellectualism. Also, nice way to out yourself. If you were truly unbiased, you wouldn't whine and cry about gatekeeping. The world isn't fair, grow up.

Anyone who’s mad at AI for anything is a weirdo. They just don’t realize it because they’re lame.

miggers basically are selling solutions to dumb math problems and theyre mad ai stole their money

>you buy a new car
>a nigger steals it
>you become upset
>some other nigger comes and asks why are you so upset, Is it just about gatekeeping?

>>17088324
They spent decades looking for the solutions, and then an AI found it in a couple of days. They feel they have wasted decades of their lives.
>>
The solution to a problem is not the only thing that matters, how you come to a conclusion is also important, and ai doesn't always do that. Sharing a quote from a random: "so AI is just bruteforcing the passwords to the universe when we want the encryption keys"
>>
>>17088324
I'm not upset if it's solving real problems that matter in the real world now or in the future. I don't see the point in solving pure math problems as you could come up with infinitely many of them and they don't mean anything.
>>
>>17088324
Human readable techniques to get to the solutions are often more important than simply having "a solution" which doesn't necessarily do or lead to anything.
>>
>>17088324
Because it's largely not solving the problems, it's brute-forcing single case solutions that are of minimal value and then advertising that the problem has been solved for marketing purposes, all while flooding the field with thousands of hundred-page sloppa proofs that will take months to verify.

Cases like the Navier-Stokes problem, for example, it's not about punching in numbers or equations until you find a single case that shows a solution is or isn't smooth or does or doesn't have a singularity; the broader NS problem is answering whether or not general solutions or exist for systems of coupled nonlinear partial differential questions and, if so, whether a mathematical method or formalism can be developed which makes those general solutions findable. That has enormous implications for math, science, and engineering, but it's not something you can just brute force because it's not just punching shit into a calculator or a large language model, it's developing a fundamentally new way of solving problems in mathematics.

In a year everybody will be able to do what openai just did, i dont get why they are mad at them, they just showed them whats to come
>>
>>17088324
They aren't. AI hate is largely astroturfed on the internet and then parroted by people who don't think and just parrot what seems to be politically aligned but didn't come up with their own native opinion. So they spew the astroturfed garbage and china continues winning.

Nice projection, dude.

Dammit I fucked up again. Here's the vid.
