The experience of being human: on the day it becomes abundantly clear that all open problems in mathematical theory and physics will be solved in ~2 years tops, 98% of the people paying attention to the situation will be too fixated on the human drama about who should get credit to notice that the world changed under their feet in a permanent and quite astonishing way. I feel a strange mix of pride, annoyance, affection, and fear for us all.

As recently as April this year, prediction markets gave AI less than a 40% chance of solving any Millennium Prize Problem before **2030**

Two stacked dark-mode tweets: Joshua Achiam (@jachiam0) on how people will react when it is clear all open problems in mathematical theory and physics will fall within about two years, and Henry Shevlin (@dioscuri) noting prediction markets gave under 40% in April, with an attached Manifold chart of 'Will AI solve a Millennium Prize Problem before 2030?' now at 94%, rising steeply from about July 2026.

When the Spring semester started at MIT, AI couldn't meaningfully solve open math problems.

When the Fall semester starts today at MIT, AI will have allegedly solved a Millenium Prize Problem.

Imo this pace of change reasonably deserves the title of 'mathematical singularity'

Dark-mode tweet screenshot: David Turturean (@DavidTurturean) contrasting AI's inability to solve open math problems at the start of MIT's Spring semester with an alleged Millennium Prize Problem solution by the start of Fall, and calling the pace a 'mathematical singularity'.
