Thank you very much for your sensible comment. I'd like for more commments to contribute at least small things to the discussion instead of just mindless parroting. Also, I can't follow your advice, as I don't work in AI at a

Yeah given he had been very pro-AI for years, I expected he made peace with the issue many many years ago (like I did back in 2018), and when this time would come he would explain to other mathematicians how to live with it. I am a bit disa
