The Joint Mathematics Meetings held in Seattle from January 8 to 11 gathered over 5,400 mathematicians to explore the theme 'Mathematics in the Age of A.I.' announced by Dr. Bryna Kra. This initiative encourages reflection on AI's influence on mathematics education and research. Highlighted by a keynote from Yann LeCun, discussions addressed the technical challenges facing AI development and the necessity of understanding AI's role in mathematical processes. The event facilitated dialogue about the future of mathematics in an increasingly automated world.
Dr. Kra intended the A.I. theme as a wake-up call. A.I. is something that is in our lives, and it's time to start thinking about how it impacts your teaching, your students, your research.
Yann LeCun, the chief A.I. scientist at Meta, said the current state of machine learning is that it sucks, during his keynote lecture Mathematical Obstacles on the Way to Human-Level A.I.
