Out of curiosity, which harness do you use for this kind of task, and how do you sandbox it? I used Aider before, and consider switching to a more recent tool.

Power longevity might not be the reason since in this project, having faster transition seems to be done by using less change waves, which probably uses less electricity.

One book cited several times in the preprint of OP is the volume 2 of the famous book series of Knuth, The Art of Computer Programming, notably its section 4.6.4. For readers interested in this kind of results, it is a really interesting gathering of classical theorems and useful tricks to evaluate quickly polynomials.

Some libraries let you borrow Playstation video games. I wonder if those libraries will have access to a system that allows people to borrow digital video games.

Beyond the technical aspects, this new technology also leads to fundamental social changes.

In particular, until now, mathematics were one of the rare sciences were great scientists could emerge from any country with a good education system.

With the raise of strong AI tools, only scientists in rich countries with access to those tools might be able to advance faster on the most difficult problems like the millennium problems.

Mathematics might become like experimental sciences were you need to build expensive machines to make further progress, such as nuclear fusion.

Actually, even now, the strongest models in mathematics are only available to a few engineers and a few mathematicians selected by Openai and Google.

> They are a company offering a product and they decided not to offer it to kids. It's not like they are telling you as a parent what you need to do.

Fair enough! Indeed that would be a true issue only if the company had a monopoly.
