The Technological Turn in Mathematics
Quickly evolving technologies, such as Interactive Theorem Provers (ITPs), Automated Theorem Provers (ATPs), and Large Language Models (LLMs), all falling under the general heading 'AI for mathematics,' are transforming mathematical practice in profound ways. This chapter explores the implications of these innovations, focusing on their impact on how mathematical knowledge is created and shared. It also discusses how they are reshaping the social dimension of mathematics, altering collaboration dynamics, trust relationships, and the collective production of knowledge. For instance, tools like ITPs facilitate large-scale collaborations and make new types of teamwork possible, where trust is not a necessary ingredient. ITPs also help us mitigate our human fallibility, yet they raise questions about the nature of formalization and the relationship between traditional and formal mathematics. Technologies such as LLMs are reshaping the division of epistemic labour between humans and machines and urge philosophers of mathematics to ask questions about the value of their work.

Exploring the interplay between AI and human logic in mathematical problem-solving
This paper investigates the dynamic interplay between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and human logic in the domain of mathematical problem-solving. By critically examining a series of case studies, we compare the efficacy of AI-generated solutions, particularly those offered by ChatGPT, against traditional human problem-solving methods. The study employs various mathematical challenges, ranging from abstract logical puzzles to applied numerical problems, to evaluate AI's problem-solving approach and alignment with human cognitive processes. Our analysis highlights instances where AI's computational strategies complement or diverge from human reasoning, shedding light on AI's potential and limitations in deciphering mathematical problems. Furthermore, we explore the implications of integrating AI tools in educational contexts, specifically their role in enhancing students' mathematical problem-solving skills. The paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on the optimal utilization of AI in education, proposing a balanced approach that leverages AI's computational power while fostering the depth and creativity of human logic. Through this comparative study, we advocate for a collaborative model where AI and human reasoning merge to enrich the educational landscape, particularly in the teaching and learning of mathematics.
