AMS Advisory Group on Artificial Intelligence

Q: What is the scope of the AMS Advisory Group on AI and the Mathematical Community?A: What we are trying to do is think about what the AMS should be doing in relation to AI, and then pass those questions or issues on to the existing policy committees.It's preliminary-a way to start the ball rolling.The effect of AI on math is evidently going to be a long-term thing.We're just at the start of that now.I'm in charge of the committee, not because I know a lot, but just because I think it's important for the community to think about it.We wrote a collection of white papers corresponding to the AMS policy committees, which are meant to be just a starting list of issues for those committees to think about.Q: Can you give a little more information on how the advisory group members were chosen?A: We wanted to have people who had overlap with the policy committees so that they could be liaisons, and people who had thought about the issue in some way.I was involved in a Bulletin article (see below).Our other members are much more involved, in proof formalization and so on.
