AI Solves 56-Year-Old Math, Sanctions Backfire, and the Workforce Lie (May 25 2026)

Subscribe to our Newsletter at https://enoumen.substack.com #DJAMGAMIND Summary: In today’s briefing, we analyze "The Geopolitical Backfire and The Death of the Turing Test." We deconstruct the monumental milestone of Google DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solving nine open Erdős math problems, marking a shift to original, machine-speed discovery. We explore the failure of US hardware blockades as Chinese lab DeepSeek slashes prices by 75% using homegrown Huawei chips. We dive into the severe corporate morale crisis, with new data showing 63% of workers are actively lying about their AI skills due to automation anxiety. We also cover Anthropic's Claude Mythos finding 10,000+ critical bugs, Pope Leo XIV's 42,000-word AI encyclical, and Waymo robotaxis getting defeated by puddles.
