> The easiest way of solving math problems with an LLM is to make sure that very similar problems are included in the training set.
An irony here is that math blogs like Tao's might not be in LLM training data, for the same reason they aren't accessible to screen readers - they're full of math, and the math is rendered as images, so it's nonsense if you can't read the images.
(The images on his blog do have alt text, but it's just the LaTeX code, which isn't much better.)
