CMAI2023 did not happen (yet), but FIAS/Goethe-Universität organised the "Bridging Fields in Creativity Research" 11-13 Sept 2024, registration still possible: https://t.co/tw8K8xgYPK Our speaker Prof. Anna Abraham @the_imagine_lab will also give a lecture!
Registration is now open for the 2023 TORRANCE FESTIVAL OF IDEAS (April 18-20), a free annual online cultural event where renowned experts from across disciplines present their exciting ideas to the global general public!

Early bird registration ends tomorrow! Book your place for the "Creativity in Maths and AI" workshop 18-20 January 2023 @UM_DACS via https://t.co/IvhdETeqEl
Is "A machine can take hold of the bare fact, but the soul of the fact will always escape it" (Poincaré, 1908) true for LLMs? Come discuss at our workshop: https://t.co/IvhdETeqEl
Is human led mathematics over?
A discussion between @wtgowers and me, moderated by Joëlle Pineau (managing director of Meta-FAIR).
Short answer: no.
But 'AI for mathematics' is making fast progress.

Our speaker, mathematician Dr. Paige Randall North @UniUtrecht, will give a lecture about the history of computer proof assistants, in particular in homotopy type theory (HoTT)! A preview on HoTT: https://t.co/WxPGPTW0BQ
Our speaker Prof. Dr. Simon Colton @SimonGColton@QMUL@MonashUni is an expert in computational creativity and automated mathematical reasoning. Read more about his project The Painting Fool in an article @WiredUK: https://t.co/KR5AeGaoMl
Research by Stylianou & Silver (2004) has pointed out the role of visual representations for mathematicians. What enables visual imagery? Our speaker Dr. Maithilee Kunda @VanderbiltU will provide a computational view of visual imagery in humans and in AI systems.
AFTER YANG opens this Fri, Mar 4 – w/a pre-recorded intro from director @kogonada (+ at Fri's 8pm showtime, a post-screening discussion on AI w/ @VanderbiltU's Maithilee Kunda as part of our 2022 @scienceonscreen) > https://t.co/wTcGOPA7eE
@XenaProject @LawrPaulson There has also been quite a bit of research done on 'creativity' in computer agents (some people who used to do theorem proving got into that game). I have not looked at the theoretical underpinnings of that, but you could ask @SimonGColton .
How does human creativity compare to AI-based forms? This question will be discussed by our speaker cognitive neuroscientist Prof. Dr. Anna Abraham @the_imagine_lab@universityofga, Director of @TorranceCenterU. Preview:
Our speaker Prof. Dr. Kevin Buzzard, Professor of Pure Mathematics @XenaProject @imperialcollege will give a lecture on "Can computers be mathematically creative?" For a preview, watch his lecture at the International Congress of Mathematics 2022! https://t.co/IERjuF8U1i
Renee Hoekzema is a 'pure' mathematician, a topologist, looking at shapes and spaces. But topologists are in demand from across the blurry, artificial divide. 'Applied' maths needs them to work on data.
Or rather, society needs all mathematicians. Let Renee explain.
Our speaker Prof. Dr. Yang-Hui He @YangHuiHe1@OxfordPhysics@London_Inst and Nankai University will give a lecture on "Universes as Bigdata: from Geometry, to Physics, to Machine-Learning"! Watch his talk @HarvardCMSA to get inspired by his research: https://t.co/lx296nzCXa
Our speaker Dr. Catherine Menon @cg_menon does not only have a PhD in Pure Mathematics and is principal lecturer in robotics @UniofHerts, but also wrote the novel "Fragile Monsters"! https://t.co/awMpdFosxQ
Really looking forward to giving a lecture at this @cmai2023 workshop in January! I'll be talking about the human experience of mathematics. It ain't all numbers, folks. 😊
Registration for the interdisciplinary scientific workshop "Creativity in Mathematics and AI" (CMAI 2023) 18-20 January 2023 @UM_DACS @MaastrichtU in The Netherlands, is now possible via https://t.co/IvhdETdSON
