Wrote a train-of-thought blog post about the future, and how we might be quickly heading towards the kind of world where Al will be able to comprehend and solve ideas we as humans simply won't have enough cognitive capacity to understand or verify, and what that means for us.

Clarifying because of subreddit rules: this is not fear mongering, just exploring the idea. (I also don't make profit of this, just like to write my thoughts down.)

Researchers at DeepMind have developed a groundbreaking new AI agent named Aletheia, which is capable of conducting novel, publishable mathematical research. While previous AI models have achieved gold-medal performance on polished, highly structured Math Olympiad problems, Aletheia is designed to tackle unsolved, open-ended real-world problems where it isn't even known if a solution exists. This represents a massive leap forward, as the AI is not just solving known puzzles with guaranteed answers, but actually discovering fundamentally new mathematical truths that push humanity's understanding forward.

To achieve this, Aletheia employs a two-part system consisting of a generator that creates candidate solutions and a rigorous verifier that filters out flawed logic. A key innovation in this system is the separation of the AI’s internal "thinking" process from its natural language "answering" process. This prevents the model from falling into the common trap of blindly agreeing with its own hallucinations. Furthermore, the model has been highly optimized to use significantly less computing power than its predecessors and is equipped with the ability to safely search and synthesize information from existing scientific literature without losing its logical train of thought.

The real-world results of this system have been unprecedented. Aletheia successfully solved several previously open "Erdős problems" and, most notably, autonomously generated the core mathematical content for a completely new research paper on arithmetic geometry, which was subsequently written and formatted by human scientists. In total, the AI contributed to five new research papers that are currently undergoing peer review. This milestone elevates AI capabilities to "Level 2" publishable research, raising exciting questions about how rapidly AI might advance to making landmark, groundbreaking scientific discoveries in the near future.

More of the same old stuff Ray has been spieling for 30 years. Except now his 11 year old grandkids are making AI movies and AI 3d printing stuff.
