Maybe we should also burn books and lobotomize ourselves to make science more fun and challenging. The ego here sickens me. I don't care about your ego. I want accelerated material science, medical science, energy, better outcomes for people across the world.
I also want better outcomes for people around the world.
Memes like the permanent underclass and the massive incentive of replacing workers across the world does not bode well for a better outcome for people across the world.
Ah, so you're saying none of us will benefit from the discovery of new mathematical knowledge?
You've just condemned funding math, even human-produced math.
Either math is useful, in which case AI math is useful, or math is not useful, in which case we can save money by having mathematicians sell shoes or clean toilets.
A rational reaction would be to identify the political coalition that would act in this manner and place yourself in opposition to it if you do not see yourself being able to change it.

There will be people benefiting from advances in these fields.
Neither you nor I will be one of them.

If that's your starting position then for sure you won't, buddy.

wasn't that always the reaction historically whenever people felt like their livelihood was threatened by new technology?

I wonder which one that is.
Why? No one will be able to effectively ban AI. Pandora's box is open, and we can only witness the consequences.
