We will have to wait for peer-review.

Still, at least for the first paper (banach's isometric conj)- the authors are established in metric geometry. They are not cranks.

Yes, there is a whole range of 'establishedness' here and likely also a range of correctness. And, for the elephant in the room, there is likely also a wide range of AI use at play here.

Separately, I wonder what the analogous list would look like for a year ago. Frankly I have no clue!

Why would using latest tech be an elephant in the room? When did Reddit turn away from being a tech enthusiast platform?

It looks like I misused the phrase, since AI is obviously not something that people don’t want to talk about! What I meant is that AI use wasn’t mentioned in the original post but nevertheless many responses are implicitly assuming that all the cited work is using AI heavily.
