  <body><![CDATA[<p dir="ltr"><strong>AI for the Working Mathematician</strong> is an informal discussion group for mathematicians interested in practical ways that artificial intelligence can support mathematical research and increase productivity.</p><p dir="ltr">Topics may include AI-assisted problem solving, literature searches, mathematical experimentation and computation, writing and editing, software development, conjecture generation, proof discovery and verification, and AI-assisted or automated formalization using Lean and other proof assistants.</p><p dir="ltr">We will also discuss the broader effects of AI on mathematical research and on the profession of mathematics.</p><p dir="ltr">Although both are important subjects, the group will generally <strong>not</strong> focus on the use of AI in teaching or on the mathematics underlying AI systems.</p><p dir="ltr">The group is intended primarily for graduate students, postdocs, and faculty, but anyone with an interest in the subject is welcome. Presentations will be aimed at a broad mathematical audience.</p><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><h5><strong>Fall 2026 Schedule</strong></h5></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><p dir="ltr"><strong>SEPTEMBER 3</strong><br>Speaker/topic: Matt Baker, "Doing Mathematics with AI"</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>SEPTEMBER 17</strong><br>Speaker/topic: Kuldeep Meel, "Tex2Lean"</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>OCTOBER 1</strong><br>Speaker/topic: TBA</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>OCTOBER 15</strong><br>Speaker/topic: TBA</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>NOVEMBER 5</strong><br>Speaker/topic: TBA</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>NOVEMBER 19</strong><br>Speaker/topic: TBA</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p dir="ltr"><strong>Lunch will be provided at no cost to attendees.</strong> RSVPs are not required, and food will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.</p><h5><strong>What happens at a meeting?</strong></h5><p dir="ltr">A typical meeting will begin with a 20–30-minute presentation, followed by discussion.</p><p dir="ltr">Presentations might include:</p><p dir="ltr">• a useful way someone has found to use AI in their mathematical work;<br>• a demonstration of a particular AI tool or workflow;<br>• a case study involving AI-assisted mathematical research;<br>• AI-assisted proof formalization using Lean or another proof assistant;<br>• a book-club-style discussion of an essay, blog post, or paper; or<br>• discussion of a recent AI-assisted mathematical discovery, counterexample, or other development.</p><p dir="ltr"><strong>Suggestions and volunteers are very welcome.</strong></p><h5><strong>Join the group / Suggest a topic</strong></h5><p dir="ltr">To join the email distribution list, suggest a topic or guest speaker, volunteer to give a short presentation, or give us a rough indication of which meetings you may attend, please fill out the brief form below.</p><p dir="ltr">The attendance questions are non-binding and are intended only to help us estimate interest and lunch demand.
