Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal · Yang-Hui He: Why AI Will Permanently Transform How Math Is Done · 3 Jan 2025 podcast

And I got to I got to to know him uh through this memoration thing that I was gonna I'm gonna talk about later.

And and reminded him that I almost became his undergraduate uh research student.

I ended up doing kind of I was I was an undergrad at Princeton where I had a two path I could follow.

Um for you know to your you know it kind of defines your in your undergraduate thesis, right?

So one was in mathematical physics, one's with one was with that's with uh Alexander McDowell.

Yeah.

And the other one was with uh you know two two problems, and the other one was was actually offered by Peter Sarnack.

Arithmetic uh problems.

And I I somehow just I because I was I wanted to understand the nature of space and time, I went through the Alexander Migdao path to do mathematical physics, which led to do string theory.

And I come after you know, after 20, 30 years, I came full back to to to to be in Peter Sandak world again.

I met him at this conference, I reminded him of this, and he was very happy.

But I also actually was really interested.

Is that he was asking DeepMind the same question uh a few years ago about the diluvio lambda, whether DeepMind could do better than 50%.

So I was I was glad that I thought along the similar lines as as a great expert in number theory.

And and somebody who could have potentially have been my uh c be my my supervisor.

And then I would have gone into number theory instead of string theory, which is whatever.

It's guess how life

Um not specifically.

I'm actually it's interesting.

Um one of my colleagues here at the London Institute, he's uh uh uh Mikhail Bertseff, he's an AI true A he's uh he's our um institute's uh AI fellow and he's an expert on transform architecture.
