> In my opinion there has never been a better time to be a mathematitian

I think it’s a great time to be a curious mathematician, especially in a niche field where you’re not competing with hundreds of agents of the best unreleased frontier models.

However it’s a very scary time to be a professional mathematician because publish or perish is going to cause a race to the bottom for cranking out results as fast as AI can let you. [0]
