Dr_Atoosa · x · 2026-10-30
DeepMind senior researcher Atoosa Kasirzadeh publishes 'A New Dawn For Mathematical Progress' in Noema Magazine, tackling the fear that human mathematicians are becoming obsolete as frontier AI solves Millennium Prize-level open problems. Her core claim: whether AI ends human mathematics or ushers in its golden age depends on key conditions explored in the essay. Acknowledgments include Shane Legg, Murray Shanahan and other heavyweight AI figures, signaling serious input along the way.
