This is an incremental discussion on the impact of AI on mathematicians, focusing on adaptation rather than new technical solutions.
The essay addresses the problem of AI's growing capability to prove research-level theorems, urging mathematicians to adapt to the disruption in mathematical practice and respond to the associated challenges and opportunities.
Recent developments show that AI can prove research-level theorems in mathematics, both formally and informally. This essay urges mathematicians to stay up-to-date with the technology, to consider the ways it will disrupt mathematical practice, and to respond appropriately to the challenges and opportunities we now face.
