academic math background? this guy has no formal academic mathematics math background. do your own diligence before you open your mouth.

AMS fellowship is case specific. think: free mathematica copies supplied, some anonymous donations. He is no credible mathematician. What are you doing about? ad hominem attacks? go to Taleb to learn about real ad hominem attacks.

Nobody cares about formal academic background.

Ramanujan had none (and it was visible in the way he was writing proofs) so what?

Either you produce something of interest in the field or you don’t.

And Wolfram did.
