Mathematicians don’t deserve a special exemption from AI

A Reddit user argues that mathematicians should not receive special exemptions from AI, despite concerns about AI companies potentially publishing mathematicians' work without proper attribution. The user emphasizes the importance of verifying AI-generated proofs for correctness and originality, ensuring they are not derived from existing or unpublished human work, and accurately attributing contributions. However, if AI independently discovers new knowledge using publicly available information, it should be published, as slowing down human knowledge progression due to professional displacement is not desirable.

This post argues against special exemptions for mathematicians from AI, unlike other discussions that focus on the ethical implications for artists.
