Today we visited the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS) — basic research in the natural sciences, mathematics and computer science, from molecular biology to astrophysics to discuss possible collaborations. Founded by philanthropist Klaus Tschira and the Klaus Tschira Stiftung, HITS sits beautifully above Heidelberg next to the historic Villa Bosch.

We are planning more collaborations between HITS and the Lie–Størmer Centre, and we will start with a joint workshop on the future of mathematics and AI. 📸

Math Meets Machine: Foundations and Futures
🗓 Wednesday 2 September, 10:00–11:00 (online)

Together with colleagues from NTNU - Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet and UiT Norges arktiske universitet the AI & Mathematics Forum launches next week – an online meeting place for mathematicians to discuss the role of AI in research and education. Everyone is welcome to listen and discuss.

First talk up is

🎤 Andrii Bondarenko (NTNU): AI in Pure Mathematics – The Future Is Already Here
Recent AI achievements in pure mathematics, including results from Andrii's own work, and what they mean for the future of mathematical discovery. 30-minute talk followed by open discussion.
