Unfortunately, it is not, and many of its attempts at mathematical proofs have major flaws. You shouldn't trust its proofs unless you are already able to evaluate them--which I think is pretty much all the OP is saying.
- adrianN 5mo agoTo be fair, many of the proof attempts that mathematicians do also have major flaws. Most get caught before getting published.
- seba_dos1 5mo agoBut that's the actually important difference. Mathematicians have the toolset and processes to catch the flaws, random people using Claude don't.
- IanCal 5mo agoTrust isn’t a binary, and I can trust things I don’t understand enough that I can use them. OP was talking about needing to understand, which is quite a bit above the level of being able to validate enough to use for a task.
