Okay so you are saying the old incentive structure is outdated. What is the new incentive structure in the LLM era? What exactly makes people want to understand LLM-produced math?

I actually read through a bunch of LLM slop on the weekends trying to catch white whales I couldn't during my math PhD.
The incentive is solving the problem and understanding the solution.
