PARIS, France (AFP) — Dozens of mathematicians signed a declaration Tuesday calling for the discipline to resist beating the drum for artificial intelligence developers.
The “Leiden Declaration”, backed by over 150 professors from across the world including Europe, Japan and the United States (US), warned governments especially not to “believe the hype” about systems’ maths abilities.
Their intervention follows claims of increasing capability from AI firms, including performance in elite international competitions and alleged solutions to thorny open questions in the field.
