I think it's worth emphasizing that this year (\pm a few months) has seen some of the most original and deep "human generated" math. My understanding is that: arxiv.org/abs/2508.05105 or arxiv.org/abs/2609.21892 are kind of sci-fi math.

People on this app don't appreciate how well purely human mathematics is doing. People prove major results literally every few weeks, with proofs that are insightful, beautiful, and solve many problems simultaneously. Currently reading this wonderful thing: arxiv.org/pdf/2608.26392

Happy to share our preprint on a subset of ZBTB BTB domains as efficient natural SUMO 'supersubstrates'. The work was spearheaded by a great postdoc, El Hadji Cisse, with input from other team members and in collaboration with Defossez and Aucagne labs. biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

This property extends to 5 human ZBTB proteins (38, 4, 33, 21, 14). This work continues from our previous study where we found that BTB domains of around 20 different ZBTB proteins form filaments. Now we show that 5 other ZBTB proteins undergo efficient SUMOylation.

If your claim to fame is pushing a button to optimize a breakthrough announced by a junior mathematician a few days ago, it’s not very impressive, to put it politely. Without getting into rumors on the sequence of events…
1/ ✨ World record today on bounded gaps between primes, one of number theory’s oldest open conjectures.
We show that infinitely many pairs of prime numbers are separated by 212 or less.

Btw Andreas Thom is now also wondering outloud whether OpenAI used his personal user data to train the model to find a non-sofic group...

This reference list for Navier Stokes blowup is outrageous.
No Chen-Hou, no Alpoge-Buckmaster, no Córdoba and Martínez-Zoroa, no Elgindi.
They are not properly attributing any previous work to the problem

I feel there are more points of division at play: utilitarian (things matter if they serve the right goal, ultimately the pleasure/health of individuals) vs. attentive to inherent value; individualist vs. communitarian; universalist (global wellbeing) vs. localist (a web of...
I wonder how much of the divide among mathematicians on AI comes down to which of us consider ourselves scientists and which of us consider ourselves artists. (I'm very much in the former camp but for what it's worth I am sympathetic to the latter.)

I follow the AI & math discourse a bit - without understanding the actual math. I thought I might offer some thoughts as a scientist in structural biology - a field transformed by various tech over the years, and recently by AlphaFold. It might perhaps interest @nasqret et al.🧵
I'm currently returning to Toronto from a summit on the future of mathematics, at OpenAI. @SebastienBubeck asked me to talk a bit about the future we'd all like to avoid, where humans are mathematically disempowered. @Jacob_Tsimerman advised us to try to prioritize detail over correctness, and I have no doubt that I succeeded in deprioritizing correctness.
I tried to find a title that wasn't too bombastic:

Sorry, I was editing and pasting as I went, so it's only finished now. Good luck to all the mathematicians navigating changes in their domain! @nasqret

I'm pleased to share our review on how Human Herpesviruses (HHVs) interact with the host SUMOylation machinery. We discuss viral strategies, molecular mechanisms, and key open questions.
