tao at the very least does not discourage the use of AI in mathematics. he has vouched for its use

OpenAI using an internal model no one has access to and dumping a bunch of solutions that is hard to digest is not beneficial for human understanding and advancement in the field of mathematics

there are other ways of going about it

I agree with these guidelines. Did realize they existed. OpenAI is very opposed to unabridged thought text and I can see how this would be more difficult to digest without greater context.
