That's not the conclusion. I started using AI after the Jacobian conjecture counterexample and have used a particular problem to learn how to use AI and to explore it's capabilities. I'm not a great mathematician but I'm full faculty with 25+ years of research experience and lots of articles and I just proved in a few weeks something that had resisted my efforts for some years. The exploration process is much easier now. Ideas are quickly testable and multiple tests can help identify a technical obstruction. The tool requires good guidance and input but as it trains on people like me it will need those less. At the very least our way of doing things must change. More pessimistic views seem to me defensible.

  GP never said it was the conclusion. He was praising you, after you on your own volition decided to comment here to let know others about your experience with AI. It seems to me you're a very privileged individual, I'd suggest you practice gratitude regularly in your life.

    You sound a bit troubled. I was responding to the leading the way part. I'm hardly doing that. I just jumped on the bandwagon. What I do see is a tool that forces me to change behaviors learned over decades and potentially renders useless many of them while facilitating others. That's not all a rosy picture. As for privilege, don't assume everyone lives and works in the US or gets paid lots of money to be a professor.

      >full faculty with 25+ years of research experience That sounds pretty privileged, money aside. It's always this thing with some people ... they make everything about money. Anyway, good luck with that "wanting more" thing, it's a road that leads nowhere. Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8gmxT8qj8Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8gmxT8qj8Y, particularly if any of those 25+ years were funded by public resources.
