Terence Tao Shares ChatGPT Chat On Jacobian Polynomial
A shared ChatGPT link turned into a small X fascination with how one of the world's best-known mathematicians talks to an AI.
Entities: Terence Tao, ChatGPT
A post on X from Dan Shipper sent people to a public ChatGPT share link that he described as Terence Tao's conversation about the Jacobian polynomial, and it quickly became a curiosity object for reasons both serious and silly. In one quote-post on X, Bilawal Sidhu joked that the "main takeaway" was Tao's use of double spaces in his prompts, while another widely shared X post said the session showed Tao trying to understand the Jacobian conjecture counterexample.

I love seeing AI transcripts. You learn how people think. e.g. it's amazing we can see Terence Tao himself using AI to understand the Jacobian counterexample. And it's surreal to see my little page show up among ChatGPT's retrieved sources. 🤯 https://chatgpt.com/share/6a5fdc7a-d6f8-83e8-bbea-8deb42cfed56
To everyone suddenly interested in counterexamples of the jacobian conjecture, wishing you had a counterexample of your own: no problem! I've made 97 more counterexamples on this page. Please take one! (The explainer page tells how to make more) https://x.com/alexisgallagher/status/2079251848515731535?s=20
Terence Tao when it gets real: “I’ve activated pro.”
Terence Tao posted his ChatGPT session trying to understand the Jacobian conjecture counterexample. It's so lovely reading a slice of how his mind works, the connections he's making, etc. https://chatgpt.com/share/6a5fdc7a-d6f8-83e8-bbea-8deb42cfed56
Its just amazing that we can all read the conversation between geniuses and ask our stupid follow up questions.

for example, my stupid question is, the conjecture remains open for D=2 dimensions now ? I guess it remains open.
