Mathematics is effectively dead
AI labs are effectively gatekeeping mathematical truth, creating a closed-loop system where they evaluate their own progress with undisclosed information.
What: The article warns that as AI models become primary tools for mathematical discovery, the concentration of compute and evaluation data in a few labs risks making independent verification impossible.
Why it matters: This signals a systemic threat to the scientific method if mathematical progress becomes proprietary black-box output rather than public knowledge.
Original article
AI labs are simultaneously competing for mathematical results, selling mathematical assistance, and controlling most of the information required to evaluate either.
