Ask HN: Do you think AI has now disrupted math more than it did programming?

Hacker News New2026-11-02 18:330 views

Hi,

In this spring and early/mid summer, we saw tons of headlines about how "programming/coding/software has changed forever", and now, suddenly, we see very similar headlines about math, some from very prominent mathematicians.

To those of HNers well versed in both, which disruption do you think has been bigger `so far`, if any at all?

Thanks
