A logician friend showed me the Natural Number Game after a Haskell meetup. No royal road to Lean. Kevin Hartnett's The Proof in the Code tells how a Microsoft code-checker became a truth machine at the heart of AI math. Can't put it down. www.quantabooks.org/books/the-pr...

A fun podcast with Maxime Gabella about our dreams about AI. The next frontier of AI is building agents that use statistical learning to tackle problem-specific challenges from data. Agents come with promises, but they need a statistical harness, as @probabl.ai's www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNpv...
