Emily Riehl (@emilyriehl ) Higher Category Theory, Homotopy & AI in Math | aboutlogic #15
(from the video description):
------
aboutlogic #15 | Emily Riehl (Johns Hopkins University) joins us to explore higher category theory, homotopy, and the role of AI in modern mathematics. From the foundations of category theory to the challenges of formalizing math with proof assistants like Lean, Emily shares her insights on synthetic vs. analytic approaches, the beauty of abstraction, and how AI is changing mathematical research.
