>The output of an LLM is useless without a human mind to comprehend it

This is like saying software is useless if the user doesn't read the source code of it. This what happens >99.99999% a person uses software. People want to be entertained or have their problems solved.

Your analogy doesn't work. A "product" in research pure math is not the same as writing code.

  • You can import a theorem that another paper proves without having to understand the mechanics of the proof itself.

    • if your goal in life is proving theorems, then sure, but we don't fund mathematics to check if each conceivable theorem is true/false.
