As probably the only mathematician building an AI infrastructure + fintech company, I wrote about what I’ve learned and how I see the future of @hyperbolic_labs through the lens of math. Hyperbolic geometry, utilization, and why I care about intelligence per watt.

This is an incredible moment in this history of mathematics, computer science, physics & science with some of the hardest problems in human history being solved by AI over a period of weeks. Depending on your perspective, it's either a crisis, a triumph, or both. I don't think anyone knows for sure. We're all trying to make sense of it. I oscillate between fear/dread and optimism/excitement on a daily basis. The rate of progress is insane, including today's announcement from OpenAI of more problems solved. To help make sense of all of it, here's my conversation with three mathematicians about this moment. Each of them is an expert in the field of each of the biggest problems solved: Navier-Stokes, quasi-Riemann hypothesis, the unique games conjecture and complexity theory more generally. Ankur Moitra is a mathematician and theoretical computer scientist at MIT, visiting the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Steven Brunton (@eigensteve) is a mathematician and fluid dynamics expert at UW. Alex Kontorovich (@AlexKontorovich) is a mathematician at Rutgers specializing in number theory.

最近新闻中最不忍阅读就是胡二妹的悲剧 每天只睡 6 小时,炸土豆卖,养着孩子 因为一条差评和巨大的舆论攻击,心理崩溃自杀了 二妹可怜、孩子可怜 我们不可能让每个人满意,恶意的东西不要理会,做好自己。 生活真的不易,有能力的人多一些善意,一起让世界更好。

open.substack.com/pub/ryanre… 很不错的解读,撤单有更高的优先级利远大于弊。没人比 jeff 更懂做市商,也没人比 hyper 更懂飞轮效应。

so many books to read, instruments to learn, languages to speak, poems to write, countries to visit, songs to sing, movies to watch, people to meet, pictures to take, food to taste, places to see, sunsets to watch, stories to hear, stories to tell, things to create, hobbies to discover, dreams to chase, love to give, memories to make, lessons to learn, and a whole life to live.

never underestimate the speed at which your life can change. all it takes it 3-6 months of intense focus to forever change the trajectory of your life. set a goal that seems unreasonable and slightly terrifying, get plenty of sleep, soak in the sun, educate yourself as much as possible, give yourself a creative output, chase mastery, and enjoy yourself. find work that feels like play and hobbies that fulfill you.

研究半天别人是怎么能报价比我们低的,最后发现是靠骗。真的是大无语。 报价报低价,实际无法成交。全靠滑点设得大的用户成交 而且这"个别"做市商还是 wintermute,币圈最大的做市商也靠这挣钱?不怕有人告他们吗? 截图来自 OKX 聚合器文档

Terence Tao made a very powerful point: “In most cases in pure mathematics, the problems are posed not because we desperately want the solution to these problems in and of themselves, but because we have seen from past experience that human-directed efforts to solve these problems tend to spur further development of the field through the efforts to solve such problems, and then to digest any partial or complete solutions that emerge for further insights. Prematurely solving the problem by purely AI-powered methods—particularly without full transparency into the solution process—can contaminate this process to the point where it actually becomes a net negative for the progress of mathematics as a whole.” I’ve been following Terence Tao for like 20 years, and I have always been impressed by the clarity of his thinking. This clarity stands out even more in this difficult moment, as AI labs turn mathematics into a battleground in their race for supremacy. In this race, they risk damaging one of humanity’s highest intellectual endeavours.

Oh man, this story is so UPLIFTING (without being corny). It's one of the best stories I've read in a very long time -- and a welcome break from AI. Enjoy the free article! nytimes.com/2026/09/06/scien…

Replying to @AnthropicAI
@AnthropicAI has shared the first end-to-end, computer-checked proof of Fermat's Last Theorem: 13 million lines of Lean, 29,500 intermediate theorems. Their announcement calls it "the largest Lean proof ever constructed." See also Kevin Buzzard's blog post about the proof: xenaproject.wordpress.com/20… 🔗 Anthropic's announce post: anthropic.com/research/forma… 🔗 The code: github.com/anthropics/fermat… #LeanLang #LeanProver #FLT

"I Quit Math, Then Wrote a Paper with AI" I posted a math paper on arXiv, first time in 3 years. Joint work with AI (Fable and GPT-5.6). Almost all the proofs were given by AI, and the paper was written by AI too. I wrote an essay about how it went. haruhisa-enomoto.github.io/q…
