8 billion is the wrong number to use in the denominator, since not every single person on Earth was actively trying to make progress in Navier-Stokes. Equivalently, we could say "1 out of every 5 billion AI prompts managed to solve 1 of the seven millennium prize problems".
I never cared about merely solving problems. I care about the beauty that one can construct from the human mind, and that was the entire point, at least for me, to practise math. To me, what mathematicians have done with AI and Navier Stokes is worthless.
the result of this originates from the beauty of the human mind, even if the tool used blinds you to the (very human) conquering of a long standing problem.

I feel like I'm going crazy reading this stuff. Are we about to be passed a Dixie cup with Kool-aid in it?
