Mathematician Terence Tao describes how AI could reshape math research by enabling division of labor for the first time. Until now, researchers had to master every step themselves, from framing problems to verifying results. Tao sees "industrial mathematics" emerging: large AI-supported teams instead of lone geniuses, with humans staying indispensable for "inspired guesses."<br /> The article Terence Tao argues AI could bring division of labor to math for the first time in history appeared first on The Decoder.

Terence Tao says OpenAI's GPT-5.2 Pro has solved an open Erdős problem largely on its own for the first time. He calls it a milestone but warns against reading too much into it. For Tao, the mor [...]
Renowned mathematician Terence Tao has proposed a new way to think about AI capabilities. On Mastodon, Tao questions whether true "artificial general intelligence" (AGI) is actually achievab [...]
Terence Tao compares AI's impact on mathematics to the automobile's effect on cities: new technology needs new infrastructure, or it just clogs the old roads. His analysis applies far beyond [...]
Labor Day may bring about the unofficial end to summer, but on the bright side, it can be a good time to save on tech. While seasonal holidays like Memorial Day and Labor Day aren’t the boon for tec [...]
