Blog post criticizes OpenAI's mass-generated 'research' outputs in math and physics

A guest post by physicist Rikab Gambhir, published on a blog, criticizes a trend of AI labs like OpenAI releasing huge volumes of machine-generated mathematical or scientific claims, comparing the practice to Borges's fictional 'Library of Babel' that contains every possible text, true or false. The post argues these outputs are often unverifiable or low-value despite being marketed as scientific breakthroughs, referencing an October release from OpenAI of around 700 claimed mathematical results.
