Math's role in automation and abstract understanding explored

Mathematics, as a science, is deeply intertwined with automation and the advancement of human understanding. Mathematicians explore abstract objects, using both general and specific terminology to describe their properties and relationships. While some mathematical fields are directly motivated by modeling real-world phenomena to inform decisions, a significant portion is driven by the intrinsic interest in these abstract objects, with the potential for future application, even if that application is not immediately apparent or could even be harmful. AI

    # AI # Math 2/n Before going on specific matters, I need to go back to what math is and to what it does. TL-DR;-) As far as it goes about automatization, math is probably the easiest of all sciences. In 1994, the mathematician William Thurston published a paper with the title “On…
