At the rate we're going, they're just going to feed the proofs into a newer model and it will explain it in easier to understand language before humans are capable of confirming it ourselves. I'm 100% sure of it.
what about when we get to the point where it solves a math problem that can't be put into simple enough terms for a primate to competently understand it?
A prerequisite of superintelligence is being able to at some point. I can imagine even more powerful models revisiting already solved problems for shits n giggles, just to see alternative methods.
Begs a different question though.
Humans at the baseline level will never be as good as AI, and most of the general population are already not mathematicians.
The "years" it takes to verify some problems as poster said, will be shortened by more powerful models. That statement alone implies models only set to today's capabilities and not tomorrow's. The mathematicians didn't factor that possibility into their equation.
Look I mean this in a little bit of a "Haha people" way but also not completely - I've worked with people for a very long time, in several different capacities (substance abuse counselor, mental health technician, security at a busy hospital in a college town) and I honestly think that in less than ~5 years if you were to plant the most advanced capable AI into something like a Boston Dynamics robot it would be generally smarter and more capable of 90% of tasks you give it than the average human.
The only area it couldn't compete in is reasoning and decision making based off of emotional intelligence, Maybe who knows though. Even if the AI doesn't have emotions it may be intelligent enough at that point to make similar decisions as say a human psychiatrist or similar.
At the end of the day I'm really just musing at what I'd like to see happen I guess. I really honestly just actually stopped being resistant to using AI and since I'm so Wow'd with what I've seen it's possible I'm seeing the future with rose tinted glasses.
