Terence Tao says today's AIs pass the eye test -- but fail miserably on the smell test. They generate proofs that look flawless. But the mistakes are subtle, and strangely inhuman. “There's a metaphorical mathematical smell.. it's not clear how to get AI to duplicate that.” Intelligence isn't what looks correct. It's what smells true.
