The ability of AI systems to produce new mathematics is advancing at a breathtaking pace. Many students and mathematicians are experiencing anxiety, a sense of loss, hopelessness while others feel we are entering a golden era. We all agree that mathematics as a product of human culture and as a profession is undergoing profound changes.
Below are links to essays, social media accounts, blogs and videos that I've found illuminating. They express a diversity of points of view and are from a wide cross-section of mathematicians, from students to fields medallists.
Proofs and prompts, a communal blog on Math and AI.
The AI dissenter viewpoint, by Tasmin Chu (one of the posts on Proofs and prompts). A compelling case for avoiding AI use completely. Some interesting counterpoints in the comments.
@tao (Terry Tao) on Mathstodon. Extensive discussion on how the field should evolve, and lots more.
@littmath (Daniel Litt) on x . Lots of fantastic insight and reactions.
@thomasfbloom (Thomas Bloom) on x . Lots of interesting commentary, especially around Erdös problems (Thomas created the "official" list of Erdös problems and keeps track of which ones have been solved by humans and/or AI).
The last generation of mathematicians, Curt Jaimungal's podcast interviewing Jacob Tsimerman.
Tim Gowers's blog. Some very insightful posts on various topics around AI and math.
\begin{proof} . A declaration by a group of mathematicians who pledge not to use AI in any form.
The crisis of AI generated mathematics, by Max Weinreich. Another cogent case for refusing to use AI as a community.
AI and humanity's long conversation. Geordie Williamson's public lecture at ICM 2026.
Mathematics in the age of AI. Terry Tao's public lecture at ICM 2026.
