Special Seminar on AI in Working with AI in (pure) Mathematics
Centre for Combinatorics, Algebra and Number Theory10 November 2026
Abhishek Saha gave a recent CeCANT Special Seminar on his experience of using AI in pure mathematics research.
Abhishek has helpfully made a recording of his talk available here:

Abhishek described how, in a very short time, the best publicly available AI models have become integral to his efforts to do high-quality mathematics. He also discussed some practical ways in which today's frontier LLMs can assist research in mathematics, and speculated about where the profession may be heading. The talk was based largely on his own experience in pure mathematics but much of it will be more broadly applicable.
Thanks to all who attended and particpated in the lively discussion afterwards . It was great to see a large audience spanning all career stages and many areas of mathematics.
