alt Hacker NewsCurrent headline:
"An amateur just solved a 60-year-old math problem—by asking AI"
A more honest title would be:
"An AI just solved a 60-year-old math problem—after being asked by amateur"
(Imagine the headline claimed instead that a professor just solved a math problem by asking a grad student.)
Previous problems solved by AI had some amount of expert guidance/steering. Here, I guess the emphasis is that there was none of that.
