I apologize to Dan Abramov for venting my frustrations about things outside of either of our control and unfairly using him as a punching bag. He seems to be an intelligent person and I hope he continues learning mathematics using whatever

That knowledge won’t be accesible to people who haven’t trained in understanding mathematics. This is just a fact about the human mind. By killing off this profession you will be making it almost impossible for a large number of people to a

There is no value in your technique when 2 months, or 6 months, or 2 years from now the model will improve. There is no skill in suggesting to double check work. Everything you did could be trivially automated with today’s models anyway, as

Also is your position really that nobody can point to problems or criticize anything without a fully fleshed political system to replace the USA with? I don’t support the excesses of the system of the USSR or 1950s-1980s China.

Do you understand anything about how the career works, or are you just cheering on the death of things you don’t understand?

I am not allowed to walk into my office without shoes. My shoes have had holes for 90% of my life. I assure you I own fewer things than you are imagining.

No, you’re confused about your own analogy. That corpus of knowledge is the extra mathematics the aliens have. The LLM based AI system and the out of control AI corporations are the aliens. You are some guy inviting the aliens to degrade th

I don’t “prefer” to get cheaper options in any meaningful sense. There is no choice of mine involved in what products corporations serve. I have to buy the cheapest option because I have a poverty wage and have to survive.

For some reason you think I’m opposed to the use of AI in mathematics. This is not the case. If this guy sat down to actually learn the math and then did actual work to disseminate the knowledge in a positive sustainable way it would be a d

I’ll state this again. How does my economic redundancy get mitigated in anyway by being the first on the chopping block by several years? Do you think being jobless for 3 years is just missing the forest for the trees?

Do you actually think this is a good argument? I had literally zero say in what happened in the past. I did not support the Midwest getting gutted. I wasn’t even able to vote when that was happening? Would it shock you that I generally thin

Probably because you don’t actually know how the culture of mathematics maintains the capacity for humans to learn mathematics.

It won’t. It will lead to a culture which makes it impossible to actually spend a life learning mathematics deeply.

I disagree. I see nothing creative about this guy’s efforts. The models will continue improving and soon his creative leaps of asking it to double check won’t be necessary.

I’m not actually upset with your actions I was just worked up at the time. You’re in a dilemma and graciously handling it the way you are is the only sensible path.

You are not the alien. You are the other human being extracting value from labor and efforts of other humans, with nothing but contempt from them. I am not mad at the computer. What a ridiculous analogy.

Yes I was concerned. That kind of projection is only possible in people who lack empathy. The math career is going to killed off 2-3 years before law and medicine and Wall Street banker. How does this make me more secure in any way?

There’s not going to be anyone to understand the pursued knowledge when this job gets killed off, which means you’re supporting the reduction of knowledge. That is what’s “unbecoming”.

Nobody said it was one-shotted? It was mindlessly “continue-shotted” except for the brilliant idea of upgrading the model. Obviously the models are going to be improved to the point where typing continue continue, how ya feeling, continue c
