A physicist discussed submitting an AI-derived mathematical proof to arXiv that addresses a problem in theoretical biology. While transparent about not understanding every detail of the proof, they grasp the problem, approach, and result. They view using AI for cross-disciplinary problem solving as positive. The thread also touches on the bureaucratic 'endorsement' system required for arXiv submissions.
