Public lecture will explore how AI is shaking up how we use maths
University of Lancashire to host free event on Thursday March 19
A free public event will explore how Artificial Intelligence is shaking up maths and what it means for the future of numbers and problem solving.
The University of Lancashire’s mathematics department has invited guest speaker Professor Yang-Hui He, a fellow at the London Institute for Mathematical Sciences, to share his thoughts on how AI can assist mathematical discoveries, from machine-learning algorithms to proving and predicting theories.
The event, on Thursday 19 March, will run from 6.30pm – 8.00pm in Darwin Building on the University’s Preston Campus.
“Mathematical physics has been experimenting with AI for almost a decade so it feels like the right time to take stock and consider the future implications of where we are headed,” said event organiser Professor Victor Debattista from the University of Lancashire’s Jeremiah Horrocks Institute.
Tickets are free but people are asked to register via Eventbrite.
