The current cycle of AI and mathematics gives me great hope for ordinary people like myself to try and attempt learning some mathematics and try and see if I like the experience. Has any one tried that or is trying that? How are you approaching it? I would like to know - you can DM me - I would love to have a conversation if this excites you :)

I think the _key_ to knowing if I can do it has to come from the fact if my intuition about a problem helps me make progress. I would use AI to learn the parts I did not know and engage a community of people to ask questions. Both are key.

Also I am not 100% sure, but me beginning straightaway with lean to try something — like an engineer would — does not seem like the right approach before building some critical mass in the subject. It feels kinda wrong like building the cart before the wheel would.
