The last paragraph of my colleague’s recent blog entry compelled me to write out my own thoughts here. The main takeaway is simple: AI should deliver more mathematics worth doing together. In what follows, I identify three things I value, and then I describe a “digestion seminar” in which we reconstruct and discuss arguments developed with AI. I. Learning in research For me, the most exciting thing about AI in math is the opportunity to learn so many new things.
