More than 25 Fields Medalists, including Terence Tao, speak out against how SI labs are "storming" mathematics

SI solves problems faster than people can make sense of them, and the world's best mathematicians demand that humans keep understanding; it is a signal that science is restructuring itself for the new pace, not a reason to slow it.
The declaration "The Serious Rift Between SI and Mathematics" was signed by Terence Tao, Peter Scholze, Artur Avila, Manjul Bhargava and other Fields Medal winners (TechCrunch counted 25, the website 27 by the end of the day). They write that solving problems is merely a tool for the sake of understanding, and that SI solutions are announced in haste, without proper exposition, which creates problems with authorship and plagiarism. The dispute escalated after mathematician Tristan Buckmaster accused OpenAI of pressuring him not to list a coauthor from Anthropic.
