lowkey goated at failing upwards

@TheSpeculator0 I remember my roommate applied for a SIG internship in December/January 2021/2022 and got it and now applications close in August/September with preselection stuff like discovery days. It changed significantly after covid.

@jevonduve Based on my replies and DM’s seems like everyone already knew

worst kept secret in math circles is that their CEO is a fraud and cheated her way through MIT and was emotionally manipulative to multiple people in REU's and professors in order to get her name in papers and secure good letters of rec, not to mention her "leave" from Stanford

[Immemorial @thinkingheights]

Terry Tao unfairly got a lot of heat, but the biggest fraud in this space who milked the most out of his name recognition is by a far margin Ken Ono.

If you think OAI is the worst at scooping other people's works, you have no idea what AxiomProver been doing.

@alexandrguo she lied about being in another country in order to take the Stanford quals asynchronously/online (this is 100p true) and failed anyways (not as confident) so she left instead of retaking them

[NJ @canonical777]

@jackalblackhole What proof could I post? These are firsthand anecdotes from multiple people at MIT, Stanford, Duluth REU, and UVA REU. If it was one person sure I wouldn’t bother posting but multiple people at every level have said the same thing about her.

[NJ @canonical777]

@thinkingheights @internet_times It's hard to say Ken Ono is a charlatan because he can do the math and do the math well, this is not disputable. But in this case, the CEO cannot do the math and the math she can do is at a level far below the qualifying examinations of Stanford's math PhD program.

@sagharborcap Every post I see of yours involves a citibike somehow

I “backpacked” Europe for 3 months that consisted of staying at multiple Amans/4 seasons, shopping at Brunello Cucinelli; Loro Piana; etc, and generally just not caring about money and it still only cost 35k because hostels, food, and water are cheap. What is she doing?

[Darrell Aden @darrelltalksfi]

There's this girl on TikTok who lost her job while backpacking Europe and kept traveling anyway, racking up $40k in credit card debt and a $1,300/month payment. Her friend told her to empty her $28k 401(k) to pay it down. She did, and now she still owes $19k and has no retirement savings 🤯

The French Riveria is so beautiful after getting sexually harassed by a European homosexual and turned down by the doorman at La Rotonde even though I’m staying at Le Negresco. Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat would never.

@slasten3826 I’ll jerk off to ZFC again just for that and you know what I’ll jerk off to your precious little univalent foundations too

[NJ @canonical777]

Genuinely embarrassing seeing all the e/acc’s, right wingers, random tech bros, and whoever else think that mathematicians are butthurt from not solving these problems rather than worried about the future of mathematics. Total idiots. Including @nntaleb.

[Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_]

Twenty-five Fields Medal winners have published a joint declaration warning about what they see as a severe misalignment between AI companies and the mathematics community.

[NJ @canonical777]

@TonklinDiary @ai_nois_ai @nntaleb What is prestige mathematics as opposed to mathematics?

[NJ @canonical777]

@vixsys @nntaleb The laymen can pick up math textbooks and read papers what are you even talking about? AI has yet to produce esoteric knowledge past the level of human understanding.

[NJ @canonical777]

@slasten3826 I’ve forgotten more math than your entire bloodline has ever learned

[no earthquake (doesn't know maths) @no_earthquake]

imo a lot of people are deeply misreading this as lamenting the death of personal pleasures in the face of efficient goal-attaining when it's a lament of the death of actual goal-attaining in the face of optimized things-shaped-like-goals-attaining

[Fernando Borretti @zetalyrae]

This, too, is slave morality: the talentless love AI because it brings everyone to the same low level as them.

[NJ @canonical777]

Because you can push a button to solve Navier Stokes doesn’t mean you’re now a bastion of math research ready to attack the ivory tower, it means you’re as far removed from mathematics as a call center worker is to the product they’re selling.

[NJ @canonical777]

AI dominated math research or AI labs doing math research at odds with mathematicians will be a failure and the end of mathematics. This much I am sure of.
