I’m out of academia but in defence of former colleagues I note: - Maths and theoretical physics are very cheap (compared to other disciplines) - Maths and physics researchers provide lectures for all other scientific fields - Brut forcing maths/physics problems require debilitating amount of compute/money. This will make research in these topics even more biased towards rich countries. - There most certainly will be pervers effect, ppl refraining from publishing results etc - it’s very unlikely that private ai labs will play ball with academic research. They scrapped the internet and now sell access to their models. As much as I’m happy to see new tools, I have the feeling there will be nefarious effects.
