AI is changing mathematics! Where does the conversation go from here?
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) has launched AI and Mathematics: Selected Resources, a curated collection to help mathematicians explore the opportunities, questions, and evolving discussions surrounding AI and mathematical discovery.
The web page brings together resources on AI-assisted research, proof verification, mathematics education, emerging tools, and expert perspectives with opportunities to explore new ideas, learn from others, and engage with the evolving role of AI in mathematics.
The AMS is committed to connecting our community and fostering thoughtful, informed conversations as the impact of AI on mathematics continues to unfold.
