This is a straw men argument
The petition is about a much broader problem: if we’ll demotivate people from understanding math, vibe math in a rush without making it understandable - math becomes useless
Basically with pic generation at least we all understand what is on a pic - some cat or something
With math it is trivial to generate a lot of stuff that is half-assed and just gives a plain yes/no but doesn’t get absorbed into human technology and better math
Basically it is not inly about the answer 42, it is about the questions, _meaningful_ _full_ answers and empowering people
By giving a short answer AI can burn the find and make it boring, hide the fertile ground around that answer that any human would’ve highlighted
If you have Einstein - it is not just relativity he did - you can continue asking him questions and he continues the research direction, teaches students, etc
With AI it is often 100% gate keeped (most of the time experimental AIs do the stuff, you have no access even for 200 bucks/month or more) slave that was killed after finishing - hard to “compete” with that and it is not very inspiring approach to researchers ;-)
- tim333 4d agoFair enough - maybe I didn't fully read the statement. Though you can ask AI questions about how things worked sometimes. Like here's me asking the google one how you derive E=mc2 https://share.google/aimode/dtHKAO9Nr0EYWq7JE https://share.google/aimode/dtHKAO9Nr0EYWq7JE It answered about the Navier Stokes too but not at a very deep level https://share.google/aimode/JD69g15GIQiYo9L65 https://share.google/aimode/JD69g15GIQiYo9L65
- erichocean 4d ago> vibe math Ah yes, Lean 4. Famous for how unreliable it is. Absolute slop!
