Why AI works so well? - The unreasonable effectiveness of LLMs | Lex Fridman

Why watch

This video explores why AI and machine learning models are surprisingly effective at solving complex problems, featuring mathematicians discussing how AI has tackled major mathematical challenges like the Navier-Stokes equations, Riemann hypothesis, and unique games conjecture. The discussion covers the theoretical foundations of why neural networks work, emergent capabilities in large language models, and the intersection of mathematics and AI research. Ideal for developers and researchers interested in understanding the mathematical principles behind AI's effectiveness.
