@tomkalei@machteburch.social Yes, with regards to math as my hobby nothing changes for me, that's what I said in the original post. I'm also sure there are tons of established math profs in their 50s or whatever who are not at all interested in computers who will just continue doing math the way they always did for another 10 or 20 years until they retire. The toot above was triggered by the new blog post by @wtgowers@mathstodon.xyz with thoughts on how PhD studies might change in the next couple of years. With this in mind I was saying that I was happy that in my PhD I could spend time thinking about the details (and I had to, because I knew that at some point I would need to figure out and write down the details anyway). The idea of doing a PhD in a near future where all the lemmas could just be proved by some LLM doesn't sound very intriguing to me. With regards to programming I'm quite happy that I started a new job half a year ago where LLMs are used very little (nothing agentic) and I hope that I will be able to finish my »junior developer« years LLM-free.
