@tao@mathstodon.xyz Nicola Arcozzi University of Bologna | June 2, 2026 I choose to sign, yet I have one reservation. The statement in the manifesto that "Mathematical arguments ought to be open, transparent and independently verifiable; even if the derivations are complex and lengthy, they can in principle be understood without proprietary technology or equipment" may become a thing of the past. Researchers should still root themselves in the human community and strive to explain their research thoroughly and clearly.
