What Is the Role of Mathematicians When AI Can Do Math?
As AI systems win gold medals at the International Mathematical Olympiad and autonomously produce PhD-level research, mathematicians are facing an unprecedented existential crisis. This article explores the divide among mathematicians over AI's role: some view it as a tool, others fear replacement, and still others envision a new era of human-machine collaboration. The central question: is mathematics about finding answers, or about the human process of understanding and exploration?
