A eureka moment is a two-step process: discovering something new and surprising, and establishing that it is correct. Drawing on her work at Axiom, Carina will discuss the transition from solving mathematical benchmarks to contributing to research, and from proving individual theorems to formalizing mathematical theories in Lean.

Scientific progress is a key driver of economic growth and prosperity. There is great excitement- but also concerns- about the impacts of AI on science, but so far little data. We provide early insights on this from three data sources: a sample of 15 million Gemini interactions, an inventory of over 2,600 specialized AI models across disciplines, and a survey of over 600 scientists.

Who are the individuals and communities predicting AI doom, AI boom, or AI as normal technology? What motivates them, and what should we make of their predictions? Amidst competing narratives of AI utopia and dystopia, what lessons can we learn from speculative fiction? How can the rest of us take action to ensure a human-centered future that serves all of us and our planet?
