Working with academic communities lol.

I looked over the announcement for any substantial contribution, and found they're donating $5 million to a research foundation.

$5 million might sustain 5-10 PhD students for 5 years.

Maybe it's just me but I think they should contribute more in exchange for forcing the scientific community into paying for tokens to generate slop and then pouring their time into verifying or falsifying the slop.

No one "forces" anyone to verify it.

I said the same thing in another thread and someone compared it to no one, forcing you to own a smart phone. I will preempt that argument by saying the community is motivated to verify these results because they are important to the field.

That means there's no crisis in mathematics after all, right?
