Old and new apps, via modern coding agents
Summary
Terence Tao discusses using AI assisted coding agents to modernize and create math visualization applets. He ported old Java applets to JavaScript via a maintainable repository at teorth.github.io/tao-web, with graphical upgrades; notes that LLM based coding agents can introduce bugs but the porting produced only one minor bug and even uncovered bugs in the original code. He also developed new visualizations including Minkowski space spacetime diagram and Gilbreath conjecture visualizations, and seeks feedback on the alpha release.
