I am a mathematician but I avoided commenting on this because the problems are (far) outside my domain. Even if I sat down to read the technical details (which I have not), it would be hard to appreciate the context of prior work, etc. But I've gotten enough sense of things… https://t.co/VZzosBYFto— Tony Feng (@tonylfeng) August 5, 2026

So I got memed into trying MathAcademy and it was one of the weirdest product experiences of my life. In short: I think they have an amazing product, but they're very opinionated about how you use it, and as a result I can't use it at all.Basically: they've figured out some…— Uri Bram 🔍 (@UriBram) January 16, 2025
Exponential Economist Meets Finite Physicist | Do the Math
[An updated treatment of some of this material appears in Chapter 2 of the Energy and Human Ambitions on a Finite Planet (free) textbook, also mirrors a 2022 article in Nature Physics..]
We’re gonna need a lot more mathematicians
[This is a guest post by Amit Sahai. This blog post was initially written in a different file format and converted using AI. — T.] When I was an undergraduate student, I remember talking with…
AI Has Solved One of Math’s $1 Million Millennium Prize Problems | Quanta Magazine
Mathematicians at OpenAI showed that the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe how fluids flow, can sometimes “blow up.” But the massive result is not without controversy.

Notes on Gamma
The nuance between seeing and perceiving, linearity and non-linearity, what EOTFs are – and how to draw nice smooth gradients against the odds
Math Modeling with R
<p>Math Modeling with R (RMath) engages students in solving real-world problems with mathematical modeling and computational thinking practices.</p>
Thoughtful and relevant outside math. A partial summary: Gowers thinks it’s important to sustain a human mathematical culture, but is unconvinced by the Leiden Declaration’s attempt to do that by reaffirming human ownership of specific *discoveries*.

an interesting blog post by Timothy Gowers on the Leiden declaration (on AI and Math), on why he didn't sign. it gets to a subtler aspect of control over AI and our future.
