Maybe we should also burn books and lobotomize ourselves to make science more fun and challenging. The ego here sickens me. I don't care about your ego. I want accelerated material science, medical science, energy, better outcomes for people across the world.
- shinryuu 2mo agoI also want better outcomes for people around the world. Memes like the permanent underclass and the massive incentive of replacing workers across the world does not bode well for a better outcome for people across the world.

- _zoltan_ 2mo agoIf that's your starting position then for sure you won't, buddy.

- pfdietz 2mo agoAh, so you're saying none of us will benefit from the discovery of new mathematical knowledge? You've just condemned funding math, even human-produced math. Either math is useful, in which case AI math is useful, or math is not useful, in which case we can save money by having mathematicians sell shoes or clean toilets.
- dag100 2mo agoLook carefully at the portion of derac's comment that was quoted. > I want accelerated material science, medical science, energy, better outcomes for people across the world. Does it mention mathematics? Let AI make advances in all these fields. But if most of the power and capital in society is captured by a tiny minority, then these advances will become inaccessible to common people.
