Wikipedia's first sentence called it “israeli applied mathematician and currently a professor of applied mathematics at the school of mathematical sc”. Today it says “israeli applied mathematician and currently an emeritus professor of applied mathematics at the school of mathe”. The one-line description Wikipedia serves to search engines and AI systems read “Israeli mathematician Eli”. It now reads “Israeli applied mathematician Eli”.
