That far from charitable. My arguement is: A) According to the letter, mathematicians most value: - mathematicians developing their mastery - developing mathematics that provides insights and can be eventually…
I don't understand why you can't just articulate the point yourself. It took me a while to guess what you were getting at. Could it be the quote: Our egos are powerful things. They want to believe that we’re each better…
I might want to. Would you explain its relevance here and make a pitch for me doing so.
Here's the thing. I read the letter. I'm considering it on its merits. And it has very little. They made great arguments for why it's a good thing that the mathematical community operates the way they do. They could…
Shouldn't the AI companies know by now that all mathematical knowledge belongs to the mathematical community? Hopefully this letter knocks some sense into them.
I think the later is misguided. So what if the AI labs are misaligned to math? - But they announced a result before a paper was peer reviewed! The horror! So what? The mathematics community can read the paper once it is…
That's a completely different matter. And does it matter to my point if they were successful or not? That's ex-post analysis. It seems clear that ex-ante, they wanted this to be a marketing win. The original poster…
The opposite of malicious is not honest. Nor do I see how motivations fall on a binary. The user submitting an AI proof can be honest, or malicious, or careless, or overzealous, or incompetent, or a whole bunch of other…
What I'm not seeing reported on much is if the result reveals any new techniques or ideas that advance mathematics - which is what we usually hear is the reason to work on these problems. Or does the resolution of NS…
Boo hoo. OpenAI got the result only days ago. It makes perfect sense for them to take the win in marketing, and it's fine if they take a few months putting together the paper and present it more productively later. The…
In the hypothetical, when he becomes famous, someone making prints for $20 is $1,980 less than what he would be getting now so the damage is $1,980 per print. Both the purchasers of the print and the photographer are…
I won financially. Encyclopedia sets were expensive.
Try "I am not old enough to have seen"
Am I wrong to think that because equal and opposite forces are always present, names have to be given to phenomena that are not present in the formal math itself?
I agree with the example of human agents because we can acknowledge concepts like will, choice, agency, etc. But none of those ideas are present in Newton's laws of motions.
And at the speed at which the solar system is orbiting the galaxy, I don't know that it would even look much like like the planets are orbiting the sun.
How do you feel about Aristotelian realism? Makes more sense to me than nominalism/conceptualism ever has.
> The difference with the Copernican stuff is that you can fly a satellite (e.g. Voyager) to the edge of the solar system, look back, and see the planets orbiting the sun. Or you can put the satellite in the back of a…
$10 isn't $10 everywhere. There are still places in the country where $10 feels expensive. You may want to add a filter for even cheaper meals. On the other end, increasingly, even fast food combos are more than $10. It…
Being paid in stock is a form of income, which is taxed when given and which is separate from the additional capital gains tax levied when the stock is sold. Regardless, even if different forms of compensation are taxed…
I probably have a better house in Utah than many Silicon Valley CEOs have in the Bay Area, but they have better weather.
A two millennia old institution rarely operates on the scale of decades. The workers’ rights movement may have become a pressing political issue then, but workers have been around for thousands of years. Most genuinely…
Yes, but the thing causing the pain may still be there
So she died of cancer
The current pope is a little more traditional, but it’s hard not to be more traditional than Francis. However, the cardinals as a whole are more or less on board with the previous pope’s agenda, American bishops a…
