Towards an AI Mathematician | June 7
Sessions auxquelles Kaiyu Yang participe
Vendredi 7 Juin, 2024
Mathematics is a hallmark of human intelligence and a long-standing goal of AI. It involves analyzing complex information, identifying patterns, forming conjectures, and performing logical deduction. Many of these capabilities are beyond the reach of current AI, and unlocking them can revolutionize AI applications in scientific discovery, formal verification, and beyond. In this talk, I will present initial steps towards the grand vision of AI mathematicians, taking an approach that combines ...
