(Fun)damental Uses of AI in Math: Research

February 5, 2026
1:00 PM - 6:00 PM
America/New_York
Schapiro CEPSR, 530 W. 120 St., New York, NY 10027 Davis Auditorium (Room 412, 4th Floor)

How can AI be useful in mathematical research and how might this change the nature of that research?

These questions have been brought into focus in the past year due to advances in LLMs, formalization/autoformalization, and more customized AI toolboxes. This event will be a chance to hear perspective on these tools and questions from mathematicians working on the cutting edge of AI in math research, and to get a glimpse at what the future may hold.

This event is part of the Frontiers in Data Science and AI initiative at the Data Science Institute, Columbia University.
