I think I get the genuine fear of mathematicians like Steve, that the understanding of math might be about to slip from the hands of the humans. That is an uncharted territory.

OTOH, at the individual level, for 99% of humanity, the frontier of math has long escaped their understandings. Collectively, we function as a network, and guess what this network uses to communicate, languages!

This network has been incorporating non-human intelligence for a while now, so I'm failing to see how math is special and different.
