openai published over 700 ai-generated mathematical manuscripts, leading the association for human mathematics to call for a boycott, citing violation of scientific research norms. fields medalist terence tao and complexity theorist scott aaronson are among those criticizing openai's approach, arguing that ai-generated proofs are often dense and hard to decipher, and that the company's method leaves the community doing the thankless work of making proofs readable for free. this dispute highlights a deeper issue over ai's role in mathematics, with some arguing that rushed announcements of ai-generated solutions without proper write-ups or citations could destroy the discipline's fertile ground for new ideas.
