@CLT_Exam Making students learn electromagnetism from Maxwell is the polar opposite of serious. Entirely performative nonsense.

@AndyMasley Behold! The Chinese Man: he might appear to understand Chinese, but upon looking inside, we find that his brain is merely a collection of electro-chemical signals which, together, create the illusion of understanding Chinese! I deserve to be taken seriously.

@moreisdifferent I think you're overestimating these people. They refuse to take AI safety seriously because they genuinely believe that any discussion of it is a conspiracy to harvest investor money or to hide the fact that AI progress is plateauing. They don't believe agentic AI can do harm.

We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics.

The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra.

The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

@musharbash_b @AndyMasley @cd_hooks Are you under the impression that EAs are necessarily pro-AI?

Look, if you want to abuse the LLM that's within your rights but I will adjust my opinion of your character accordingly

How you treat human-seeming entities when there are no stakes or real-world consequences to you is revealing
