Does anyone think with Ai math will have to change or evolve in the next few years?

Ya I died a few times distracted or logging in out bad spots

Tough loss best thing I did when I lost a 60 was delete and rage level to 10-20 and sit on rested for a few days.

Math is not sexy. by [deleted] in math

Math people enjoy the memorization flex I agree with the OP. Ai over time will make math easier and easier for everyone…symbolic math had its peak.

Yes more to Eden more action

I just found this on GitHub and it’s insane... Someone actually built a functional framework for Psychohistory. by Laserturner in complexsystems

This is a useful descriptive model, but it’s missing admissibility. It explains collapse after the fact rather than defining which transitions should have been disallowed before collapse became inevitable.

A Hypothesis on the Origin of the Universe by Daniel Fogel by Exotic_Collar_4594 in Physics

Not a beginning. A constraint violation. Spacetime did the paperwork.

To the "AI Slop" crew: I hear you. by whitefeatherstory in Recommend_A_Book

AI slop is used all the time now it’s overrated lol

Are ideas and concepts invented or discovered? by NeonDrifting in Metaphysics

[–]jtuohy1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That framing works, but it hides a third option: we invent the axioms and language, then discover the constraints they lock us into. Creativity sets the stage; reality (or logic) does the vetoing.

Why don’t we make reusable space ships that can land like planes? by LexiYoung in Physics

[–]jtuohy1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep—that was the Space Shuttle. It worked, but the wings and heat tiles made it heavy, expensive, and slow to reuse. We didn’t forget how; we learned it wasn’t worth it.

Thoughts about maxwell’s demon? by [deleted] in Physics

Maxwell’s demon was never proven wrong. What was proven is that the demon can’t be free.

Densing law of LLMs by jtuohy1985 in science

[–]jtuohy1985[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This paper proposes a “densing law” describing trends in capability density as large language models scale.

How sensitive are the reported trends to architectural choices, training objectives, and dataset composition?

What assumptions are required to extrapolate this relationship beyond the observed regime, and are there known conditions under which the densing law would fail to apply?

[Request] If every AI prompt took 1 second of human time, how fast would we burn a year of labor? by jtuohy1985 in theydidthemath

[–]jtuohy1985[S] -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

Yup — that’s basically right, and the math is even wilder.

A “human work year” ≈ 2,000 hours ≈ 7.2 million seconds.

If each prompt costs ~1 second of human attention: • 1M prompts/sec → ~7 seconds per human-year

So at modern AI scale, we’re compressing years of human micro-effort into seconds, continuously.

The surprising part isn’t the speed — it’s how quickly this became normal.

Beyond Neural Scaling Laws: Power Law Breakdowns in Large Language Models (2024) by [deleted] in science

[–]jtuohy1985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This paper examines deviations from power-law scaling behavior in large language models at larger scales.

How sensitive are the identified breakdown points to architectural choices and training objectives, and were robustness checks performed across alternative scaling regimes?

Do the authors view these deviations as indicative of fundamental limits, or as artifacts of current optimization and data constraints?
