      This is mathematicians using the solution, explicitly acknowledged to solve the original formulation of the problem, to pose interesting new questions. That is what mathematics is.

      Only someone who has never interacted with mathematics outside a rote-problem-solving capacity would describe it as you have.

         Or people with a vested interest in pushing the frontier labs' preferred narrative that they've achieved "AGI"...even while frontier labs continue to hire human "Account Associates", "Android Engineers", "Applied AI Engineers"...
