Fascinating discussion including showing how LLMs are helping push the state of the art:

> I still did not see how to prove this inequality, but I decided to try my luck giving it to ChatGPT Pro, which recognized it as an {L^1} approximation problem and gave me a duality-based proof (based ultimately on the Fourier expansion of the square wave). With some further discussion, I was able to adapt this proof to functions of global exponential type (replacing the Fourier manipulations with contour shifting arguments, in the spirit of the Paley-Wiener theorem), which roughly speaking gave me half of what I needed to establish (2).

> As a side note, this latter argument was provided to me by ChatGPT, as I was not previously aware of the Nevanlinna two-constant theorem.

This mirrors my experience with these tools for math. Great for local problems and chatting through issues. Still can’t do the whole thing in one shot but getting there.
