The Calculus of Dependence: How Math's Faith in AI Is Forgetting Its Own Humanity The recent Navier Stokes existence and smoothness problem debacle has shed light on a disturbing trend in mathematics: the increasing reliance on artificial intelligence without proper crediting or understanding of human contributions.
Mathematicians like Tristan Buckmaster, who accused OpenAI of copying his work to solve the legendary math problem with a $1 million bounty, are concerned about attribution and their place in the field.
The power and ubiquity of AI models have created an existential crisis for mathematicians.
