DESCRIPTION:For the past few years\, we have been intensively collaboratin
 g with mathematicians from Oxford and the University of Sydney. As a produ
 ct of this collaboration\, we have successfully demonstrated that analysin
 g and interpreting the outputs of (graph) neural networks -- trained on ca
 refully chosen problems of interest -- can directly assist mathematicians 
 with conjecturing new approaches to long-standing open problems. Specifica
 lly\, using our method we have independently derived novel top-tier mathem
 atical results in areas as diverse as representation theory and knot theor
 y.\n\nBy doing so\, we present AI as the mathematician’s “pocket calcu
 lator of the 21st century”. The significance of our result has been reco
 gnised by the journal Nature\, where our work featured on the cover page.\
 n\nIn this talk\, we aim to tell you all about our findings\, from a perso
 nal perspective. Expect key details of our modelling work + an account of 
 how it felt to interact with top mathematicians.\n\nWe are asking those at
 tending in person to please take a lateral flow test with a negative resul
 t before the talk.\n\nLink to join virtually: https://cl-cam-ac-uk.zoom.us
