Lex Fridman Podcast Deep Dive | What’s Left for Mathematicians in the Age of AI?
This episode of Lex Fridman was divided into 13 topics. The guests were three: Steven Brunton, who researches fluid dynamics at the University of Washington; Ankur Moitra, who works on theoretical computer science at MIT; and Alex Kontorovich, who studies number theory and Lean at Rutgers University. The video discussed the Navier–Stokes equations, the Riemann hypothesis, and computational complexity theory, prompted by AI’s claims—within just a few weeks—to have solved long-standing open problems in each of these fields. Drawing on their respective areas of expertise, the three mathematicians dissected...
