[This is a guest post by the Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence. This blog post was initially written in a different file format and converted using AI. — T.]
We would like to use this guest post to announce the creation of the Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study (Princeton) and online at agmai.org.
The rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) present both opportunities and challenges for mathematical research. We believe that we are at a historic moment for our discipline. Recent events raise urgent questions about how to support the long-term prospects for deep human understanding of mathematics.
Purpose. The purpose of this group is to advise AI companies on their interactions with mathematical research and with the mathematical community, including the responsible presentation and release of mathematical results. We seek to work for the best interest of mathematics and the mathematical community, and to serve as one possible channel of communication between mathematicians and the AI industry.
Independence, Transparency, and Accountability. This group operates independently of any AI company and members do not accept payment for this work. We will publish our recommendations to AI companies on this website. We are willing to offer such recommendations to any AI company whose models are likely to have a significant impact on mathematics. Although we will give advice, we do not have decision making power at any AI company, and the responsibility for the decisions made by any company will rest with that company.
Advisory Group Members
