    Comment

    I support this declaration. I notice that it says little about the ethics of warfare, which deserves further clarification in the context of interactions between Mathematics and AI.

    Comment

    Fundamental research in mathematics that abides by the standards of rigor and openness that have characterized the discipline for millennia is more needed than ever in the era of AI. As a computer software discipline, modern AI is at its core a form of applied mathematics. AI is a tool with great potential. However, AI will never be able to replace the highly human and creative work carried out by human research mathematicians. I whole heartedly agree with with the declaration and I offer my full endorsement to it.

    Comment

    It is very important to preserve human intellect in mathematical research in order to avoid biases that may arise from an artificial intelligence interface. One issue that must be avoided is the blind trust placed in AI-generated results and their use in strategic and sensitive fields, since these results may be incorrect if they are not formally validated by human experts.

    Comment

    The use of Artificial Intelligence should be highly scrutinized for its use in mathematics. Use of Artificial Intelligence should be as transparent as proofs to ensure mathematical rigor.

    AI developers and companies that provide AI services to various user groups should be held personally accountable for the outcomes of their products.

    Comment

    It is critically important to establish an AI-assisted R&D -> validation -> translation -> implementation streamline, in a responsible and non-dogmatic way.
