Grant Sanderson (3Blue1Brown) released a video on the future of mathematics, arguing there has never been a better time to enter math: everything will change, creating opportunities for early-career researchers to help redefine the subject, while human understanding will stay valued long-term. The retweeter, Constantin Kogl, appears at 17:30 showing AI-generated math, from a longer IAS conversation filmed in Einstein's office.
