Comment
AI will cause the catastrophic decline of society and science, including math mathematics, as we know it. Dumb and dumber will be the result, as well as poor and poorer. Even simple tech like voice dictationis getting dumber. The loss of independent and collaborative thought processes is already noticeable, even in my industry, and it is highly concerning. If it’s unstoppable then we are headed toward disaster, and at an unhaltered pace…

Comment
I fully endorse this declaration. I am deeply troubled by the high potential for misuse of AI in society, and the incentives being used by some organisations to recruit people to work for causes that undermine society.

Comment
I completely endorse Leiden Declaration on AI and Mathematics. It is clear that AI brings (very fast!) very powerful capabilities, and we should give our best to preserve the values of mathematical research and education, facing the threats and challenges. It is our responsibility as mathematical community.

Comment
The Leiden Declaration hits exactly my concern about the impact on the mathematical community from the vast development of AI capabilities. Human mathematical activity, since the time of ancient Greece, has constantly been valued as an indispensable part of philosophy. For thousands of years, wise natural philosophers and mathematicians have built the gigantic cathedral of present-day mathematics, though it is merely the tip of the iceberg. Mathematical exploration should always be regarded as the highest-quality cognitive work guided by human mathematicians, producing positive consequences for other disciplines of science and technology, as well as for the education system. As members of the mathematical community, we should be more collectively united in taking action on the technical impact on our community, protecting cultural value and intellectual property, as well as a healthy, sustainable ecosystem of mathematics.

Comment
I understand Mathematical Research as our best tool for achieving a human understanding of natural phenomena and of mathematics itself. Therefore, it is essential that humanity remains responsible for guiding its direction. I do not believe that a future in which science and technology are driven by AI is a desirable one. I endorse the recommendations presented and congratulate the working group that wrote the Leiden Declaration.
