My thoughts on the crucial importance of methodology on self-reported AI performance on mathematics competitions, and my policy on commenting on such reports going forward: mathstodon.xyz/@tao/1148814...
Terence Tao (@tao@mathstodon.xyz)
It is tempting to view the capability of current AI technology as a singular quantity: either a given task X is within the ability of current tools, or it is not. However, there is in fact a very wid...

very interesting discussion. the contrast IK makes between mathematics and inductive neural networks is compelling. perhaps of interest @patrickshafto.bsky.social? thanks for digging it up and for your analysis, @natolambert.bsky.social .
In this 10-minute UCLA Connect talk, Terence Tao provides an accessible and compelling argument for "citizen math" and broad collaboration in research #mathematics via #formalverification using proof assistants like #LeanLang. 🎥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=K376...

Can you train a performant language model using only openly licensed text? We are thrilled to announce the Common Pile v0.1, an 8TB dataset of openly licensed and public domain text. We train 7B models for 1T and 2T tokens and match the performance similar models like LLaMA 1 & 2
Excited to have my @darpa.mil program on AI for pure math, Exponentiating Mathematics, featured in @technologyreview.com! #expMath
The last year has seen rapid progress in the ability of large language models to tackle math at high school level and beyond. Is AI closing in on human mathematicians?
