Levent Alpöge’s personal site surfaces a neat AI-world curiosity: the Princeton-trained mathematician behind major number theory work is also listed as working at Anthropic.
The post points to his background and research footprint — Princeton PhD, Harvard senior thesis, and notable papers including work related to Hilbert’s tenth problem — turning the discovery into a “wait, that’s the same person?” kind of AI-nerd anecdote.
