"OpenAI haven’t shared fundamental information about how the problems are selected or the failure rates of their attempts"

This seems unfair. Do human mathematicians have to announce all problems they tried working on and failed to solve?

@ProfGrewal The solution to your conundrum is that there is good and bad poetry.

@antoniogm It’s very confusing as a German to read Spanish speakers write jajajajaaa

@AndrewCurran_ I don’t like mocking, but inhibiting or preventing progress is also not fine

Already love your podcast. I’m excited to listen to every episode.

Two things:
- The audio podcast version starts with a long ad and has a long ad in between. I’m constantly skipping.
- The YouTube version doesn’t have ads, but is very hard to find. It’s part of the gigantic Bloomberg Podcasts channel instead of having its own channel. There *is* currently an option to “save” a podcast, but that one is not well-known.

I totally get that things have to make money, and that there’s no way around some advertising.

@shawmakesmagic So what you’re asking for is even better AI.
I agree!

@hanno_sauer @Benthamsbulldog Reminds me of this type of infographic that was popular a while ago, educating you on how to treat a certain type of person (e.g. introvert)

@ArthurCDent @abuchanlife Imagine how much better AI will be at sorting through all the (non-AI) slop products on Amazon to find the one that’s actually good

@antoniogm One of the few CDs I’ve ever bought was Born To Die (Deluxe Edition)

@Mr_BenPrime If it doesn’t advance mathematics in any meaningful way, why don’t you just ignore it and move on?

@ChrSzegedy @francoisfleuret Every current deficiency of an AI model is just another item on an AI lab engineer’s to-do list.

@leifweatherby People who like solving chess puzzles don’t look at the solutions to the puzzles, even though a chess engine could easily provide one.

If you want to solve a mathematical problem by yourself, just do it! And don’t look at the solution.

Nobody is taking that away from anyone.

@StephenPiment People now use the term ‘slop’ in a non-dismissive way, just to refer to AI-generated content that may be correct and just hard to parse by humans

@OGVlonaldTrutin @ArielKwiat At universities? Please tell me more, I’m curious.

@zoecabina The German obsession with apples goes further:

Eye ball = Augapfel = ‘Eye-apple’
Orb = Reichsapfel = ‘Imperial Apple’

[Deniz Stiegemann @DenizStiegemann]

@zoecabina Same in Austrian German btw.

Erdapfel = Earthapple

@max78425923 @AminLaroussi Training a model uses a larger amount of power. If they’re trained in China, where is the power generated?

@SebAaltonen Amateur astronomy is a great example
