Quantamagazine is essentially Renaissance Fund, which is heavily invested in AI.

This is a clever piece reminding people of Tao's pre-AI Lean efforts. Now, however, Tao and especially Gowers are receiving AI money and have AI positions so they are far from unbiased.

Or maybe they have caught Feynman's "computer disease"? Either way, this is a hype piece.
