Technology has gone too far and become overwhelmingly anti-human. This is the start of the movement to put humans above technology once again.

Subscription required. Any1 knows what the problem was?

Apparently this was the proof (I think? I have no real idea):

Is there some function ๐‘“โก(๐‘Ÿ) such that ๐‘“โก(๐‘Ÿ) โ†’โˆž as ๐‘Ÿ โ†’โˆž, such that, for infinitely many ๐‘›, there exist > ๐‘Ž1,๐‘Ž2 with ๐‘Ž1+๐‘Ž2>๐‘›+๐‘“โก(๐‘Ÿ)โขlogโก๐‘› such that ๐‘Ž1!๐‘Ž2! โˆฃ๐‘›!2๐‘›โข3๐‘›โ‹ฏ๐‘๐‘› ๐‘Ÿ?

I have no idea what any of it means lol

I didn't get asked for a subscription. Maybe clear cookies? It said it was an Erdos problem and this guy and his friend have been trying AI on a number of Erdos problems. The output needed tidying up to make it more understandable but it sounds like the whole proof was created by the AI, or at least all the important parts.

Thank you, here seams to be a blog post talking about the process.

I feel it is good to try to get through some of these low-hanging fruit problems for mathematicians to better spend their time thinking about the actual harder problems worth attention. I conducted this as a scientific experiment to see how far the models had progressed and what was now in reach for them.
