Sam Altman sympathizes with mathematicians, but says OpenAI’s math onslaught won’t stop

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sympathizes with mathematicians struggling to understand the company's AI-generated mathematical results, but has no intention of stopping due to the public's right to new scientific knowledge. The company has spent hundreds of millions on math research and has more discoveries in store. Altman argues that humanity deserves fundamental knowledge and the disruption caused by OpenAI's releases is outweighed by the public's right to new scientific knowledge. Mathematicians have criticized OpenAI for poorly communicating its findings, leaving them to do the work of checking and verifying the results.
