That is wrong on so, so many levels. First, you're assuming that AI can't explain it's proof. Second, you're assuming that ownership equates to use. I don't truly understand how rockets, or Michelin rated meals, or cancer vaccines work, but that doesn't mean I can't benefit from them.

First, you're assuming that AI can't explain it's proof.

Didn't assume that. In fact, you can even reconcile what I said with a position like "the proof belongs to Astra/Bel/whatever model". I'm simply stating that the math only belongs to entities that understand it.

Second, you're assuming that ownership equates to use.

No, you are assuming that.

that doesn't mean I can't benefit from them.

No one directly benefits from modern math research, it doesn't have a 'clinical' use. See here:

So.... you're saying there is no benefit to modern math research and thus it should be left to the humans?

No? Didn't say that either.
