@bonifartius maybe it's like when you want a computer person to solve your problem, you call everybody full of shit to make the person come out of slumber to prove you wrong

@sun seems she was doing research in this area for her whole life https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-a-99-year-old-mathematician-unraveled-a-century-old-braid-mystery/
i don't see how llms can come up with a new proof, given their statistical nature. they can replicate the style of existing art, but coming up with a new style seems impossible to me.

They're definitely able to have new ideas. I'm often asking questions that I'm pretty confident nobody else in the world ever asks, and they're surprisingly effective at reasoning their way to a line of thinking that serves the question well...
It wouldn't surprise me at all if they were solving real unsolved problems...
