It's funny how people see "ML" models becoming superhuman at proving mathematical theorems as a sign that we're about to enter the singularity (whatever that means) or that it somehow justifies the valuations of those companies...But what I see is a scenario where companies have spent trillions of dollars on a technology, and the most non-trivial thing that technology can accomplish is a pseudo-form of automation for mathematics and coding! Remember that early on, when this whole bubble started, investors were promised that "AI" would eventually capture >70% of the world's jobs! but it could very well be the case that the only ones they're going to replace are mathematicians(and i'm not even sure about that!)!
