I replied to a comment about AI in sports and I build on that.

We praise car drivers despite most of the performance in their sport comes from the car. The driver makes the difference when two cars are close in performance. Brilliances or mistakes. Horse riders too.

In the case of math, the human can lead the LLM on the right track, point it to a problem or to another one. So it deserves some praise.

Then the team that built the car, cared about the horse, built the AI might deserve even more praise but we tend to care more about the single most visible human.
