Caltech professor Anima Anandkumar thanked SAIR foundation and Terence Tao for organizing a conference at Caltech, and highlighted her guest post on Tao's famous blog.
- Her method takes a different starting point: rather than human-constructed candidates, they design physics-AI (PINN) to discover singular candidates on their own.
- Tao has discussed the work since its September 7th launch, even before OpenAI did.
- The work sits in the AI for Science space: physics-informed neural networks aiding mathematical/physics research.
