This has to be one of the most important moments in the history of mathematics. We now have a non-human intelligence capable of solving one of the most difficult problems in mathematics.

This is a beyond remarkable achievement. Finding this lower bound within a few days of prompting is absolutely crazy.

No. This is not what I meant. I absolutely agree that std::indirect is an improvement. My point is that when dealing with C++ code, now there is yet another way of doing the same thing. I will have to remember both ways, because people will

Because I will still encounter people who use the old of writing pimpl. So I now I'm forced to remember the old way + new way. People aren't magically switching to use std::indirect. I bet that even in 10 years, half of projects w

This is actually useful, but despite it is another extra thing you will have to remember when reading C++ code. I guess with LLMs things aren't so bad.

For beginners that's irrelevant. WebGPU has more than enough features for beginners to learn about graphics programming. Not just that, once you're used to WebGPU, going to Vulkan will be much easier than the transition from OpenG

> The core problem with the modern apis is that they are so incredibly complicated that they will kill any newbie on the spot. I would agree if by modern you mean DX12 or Vulkan, but WebGPU (and maybe even Metal) are quite decent.

Honestly, in 2026 I would not really bother with OpenGL. Just start with WebGPU, it's much nicer. You can use it easily on most modern browsers or better can even use native libraries like Dawn or WGPU.

I disagree. Not all skills are useless. For example, I sometime use Qt for GUI projects and I have found their skills [0] very useful to improve the quality and performance of my projects. I their absence, I would each time have to direct t

I use AI mostly to prototype features in my existing projects. If I have an idea, I use the AI to implement it and try out different ways in which it could be implemented. Then I throw away the code and mostly write the code manually, wit
