    Comment

    The foundational mathematics underpinning artificial intelligence has evolved over hundreds of years, leaving a considerable divide between it and the cutting-edge of contemporary mathematics. In recent years, there has been a growing number of successful cases where artificial intelligence facilitates frontier mathematical research and technological development, which is truly inspiring. Meanwhile, modern mathematics can maximize its utility to help us comprehend and refine AI algorithms themselves. This mutually reinforcing synergy holds great promise for the advancement of human civilization as a whole. （The English above is translated by an AI named Doubao from my Chinese text: 支撑人工智能的基础数学理论已有数百年发展历史，与当下现代数学前沿之间仍存在显著断层。近年来，人工智能助力前沿数学探索与科技攻关的成功案例层出不穷，着实令人鼓舞；与此同时，现代数学亦能从根本上助力我们理解、优化人工智能算法。二者相辅相成、双向赋能，实为人类文明发展的重要契机。)

    Comment

    If one day, the algorithms underlying AI are fully rigorously understood, and the "black box" aspects of ML are completely elucidated, the proper role of AI in mathematics can be objectively delineated and defined. Until then, it is appropriate to exercise maximal caution in using a tool whose (imperfect and sometimes deceptive) effectiveness is only empirically observed but not rigorously understood in its foundations.

    Comment

    The future of mathematical research must be guided by human judgment, fair and transparent practices, and the shared values of the global mathematical community. We must ensure that progress serves humanity, rather than eclipsing it. Above all, mathematics is, and should always remain, a profoundly human endeavour.
