Training and outreach
Leads: Nestor Guillen and Jalal Shatah
Education is a central goal of the center. AI systems are changing how mathematics is done, and the next generation of mathematicians should be trained both to use these systems well and to understand them. The Mathematics in the Age of AI seminar is our first regular activity; further courses and programs will be announced on our activities page.
Mathematical practice in the age of AI. The institutions and norms that shape the practice of mathematics (peer review, attribution, merit, the training of students, standards of proof) developed in a world without capable AI systems. We will study how they must adapt as we enter an era of mass adoption of these systems.
AI that explains mathematics. We will work on the technical task of improving AI-exposition capabilities: systems that explain a piece of research at various degrees of resolution, letting the reader zoom in or zoom out, from a paragraph for a general audience, to an account for a mathematician in a neighboring field, to the complete argument for the specialist.
