10-panel SMBC comic update. All the panels are dialogue-less. Two researchers are writing equations on a chalkboard. A janitor watches them from afar. The researchers leave as the janitor is still mopping the floor. The janitor walks up to the chalkboard and writes on it with purpose, admires what he wrote, and leave late in the evening. The two researchers return at dawn, and are shocked by what is written on the blackboard. Over their half-erased equations, the text "ChatGPT, do a breakthru, no mistakes, thankx."

My first introduction to this actually real phenomenon was Acerfur. Ever after, whenever an online discussion of Lean gets too technical, I realize every avatar is in a fursuit. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/fur PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
5-panel SMBC comic update. Two women talk as they walk on a beach. The first asks "why do people say furries run every IT department?" This leads the second to start a passionate explanation over 4 panels, where she states: "that’s an outdated stereotype. The internet is indeed sustained by furries, but your modern furry is also the core user of automated proof solvers tied to machine learning. Furries don’t just run IT. They run math itself. Soon we will open nature’s book, written in the language of god, and only the furries will know how to read!" After the speech, the first woman reacts by saying "woof," as an expression similar to "yikes" or "wow," and the second woman responds "precisely," associating it with the sound of an animal.

New project: problemsilike.com, a website collecting open problems that I, personally, like, with comments on their context, difficulty, and interest.
Conjecture 1.1.1 of "Algebraicity and integrality of solutions to differential equations."

Primitive sets and von Mangoldt chains: Erdős Problem #1196 and beyond
A set of integers is primitive if no number in the set divides another. We introduce a new method for bounding Erdős sums of primitive sets, suggested from output of GPT-5.4 Pro, based on Markov chain...

I shouldn’t let such things bother me, but it does make me bitter when people forget that I do know how to solve things on my own e.g. Erdős 481 and 1/2 of 43, and do have published papers now… so whilst I’m not officially a mathematician, I think I’m closer to it than a random on Twitter lol

Fun little fact about my fursona: I have the Riemann zeta function plotted on the critical line on my back hah Alas, RH was the problem that got me very interested in maths.

I think about Move 37 often. It will be so incredible one day when (hopefully safely!) we can get the models to come up with these creative breakthroughs in scientific domains. A novel cancer drug, a RTP superconductor, a proof of RH, etc, etc. are all things that would net benefit humanity.

AI is capable now of generating new interesting mathematics. But it's much easier for it to generate plausible-sounding nonsense. I am concerned that the latter, copied and promoted by users with no understanding of the mathematics, is going to drown out the former.

One of the big challenges now in using AI for mathematics is the credit/attribution problem. AI has a tendency to use observations/techniques without giving credit as to where it 'learnt' about them (mainly because it's forgotten itself).

Looks like we might have the first time AI directly solved an open Erdos problem: github.com/teorth/erdos... A couple times recently this appeared to be the case only to turn out to be a successful deep lit review by AI.

Here’s a fun problem I had been thinking about over the last year that I eventually solved: Does there exist a non-trivial entire function f(z) = \sum_{n\geq 0} a_n z^n with the property that f(n) = a_n for n \in \bN? Turns out the answer is yes! Can you find such a construction?

Just learnt that through sieve methods, it is possible to show Fermat’s last theorem is true for infinitely many prime exponents- neat!

Simpler post for today but I always found these prime product identities quite beautiful. It is also possible to similarly manipulate the Euler products of other Dirichlet L-functions to give similar results!

Setting the tone for my page: Exploring some esoteric ideas and new perspectives on favourite problems. Starting with the Collatz conjecture: it claims all positive integers end in a trivial cycle via operations based on parity. Lesser-known fact: it can also be expressed as a functional equation.
