Hi fellow haters. This video shows how LLMs are solving important math problems unsloved for a long time. I’m not a mathematician, but this flies against my biases of thinking LLMs are a marketing stunt and are overblown. Anybody competent in math or adjacent fields willing to jump in and clarify this progress? Cause, I’m having troubles making llm model solve a simple thing from time to time and here they are making progress with fucking Riemann hypothesis. This is hurting my ego, not gonna lie.

    I’m no math. But all the behind the scenes crap behind stories like these read basically like this:

    “Hey computer. We all think the answer to this theory is this [Whatever the fuck]. Is that true?”

    “Wow. I checked and you’re totally correct. Everything in that theory points to [Whatever the fuck]. You’re cool for noticing.”
