How to Quantify 'Superhuman' Math Capabilities in AI?
littmath · x · 2026-07-21
When discussing AI's ability to solve complex mathematical problems like the Jacobian conjecture, the author proposes a way to quantify 'superhuman' performance: measure the number of mathematicians (N) and hours (K) required to solve a problem in a workshop setting, and compare it against the time an AI model (like Fable) takes. This benchmarking approach could provide a clearer metric for high-level reasoning.
