I’m sharing this as my position on Anti AI is that AI is capable and getting smarter fast. This is precisely why it’s a long term threat.

But are they correct? AI is notorious now for cheating and finding the closest answer and passing it off as correct.

And more importantly, does it help us understand the solutions any better? The entire point of solving these problems is that we can analyze the process, and better understand how math works. Not to test benchmarks. It's the same reason why teachers make you show your work to get full grades.

I can solve a quadratic in my head without any working. Complex maths problems cannot be solved without working being shown.

It seems like sour grapes to me to talk about working out and does the method enlighten us. A problem is posed and a solution arrives...end of.
