Wolfram asks what AI means for pure math research

Original: What's the Future for Pure Math Research in the Age of AI?

Stephen Wolfram has published a new essay exploring how artificial intelligence could reshape pure mathematics research, from automated proof and machine-assisted conjecture to the changing role of human mathematicians. Readers are debating whether AI will primarily become a tool for mathematicians or fundamentally alter what mathematical discovery looks like, and whether the traditional craft of pure math can survive the shift.

Why now: Wolfram's essay lands amid intense debate about AI's impact on intellectual work and formal proof tools.
