Average users aren't throwing frontier models at open math problems, dev observes
felpix_ · x · 2026-09-22
In the ongoing X thread, felpix adds that you don't really see average users pointing frontier models like Astra or Fable at open math problems—or even the "simpler" Erdős problems. Such usage, he argues, remains the domain of people who are deep nerds about math and/or AI, reinforcing his point that expert teams are needed.
