Ambiguous headline from

No one listened so he quit saying it.
Terence Tao,
concerned
about wanton use of AI to solve open math problems:
It may become necessary to declare certain classes of mathematical problems off‑limits to automated solvers, in order to preserve their broader value to the mathematical ecosystem (for instance, through the training of future mathematicians). Admittedly this can be hard to enforce when such tools are both powerful and widely available. But then again, society has been somewhat successful at using social pressure to discourage, say, widespread spoiling of upcoming movies.Yeah but most people are on board with the idea of not spoiling movies. There is less consensus about how and when to restrict AI.
