The introduction to this piece was easy to follow, but as soon as he got into recapitulating it with algebra he lost me (because I'm bad at math). But he includes the GPT5 prompts for his conversation, which are easier to follow:

The math if fairly specialized and advanced, I seriously doubt many people on this site can understand it (I certainly can't).

I think the fact that this is on the front page is proof that no one reads or understands the articles submitted here.
