🚀@SBERLOGASCI webinar on mathematics and data science: 👨🔬 Sergei Gukov "What makes math problems hard for reinforcement learning: a case study" ⌚️ 19 September, Thursday 19.00 Moscow time
Can AI solve hard and interesting research-level math problems? While there is no mathematical definition of what makes a mathematical problem hard or interesting, we can provisionally define such problems as those that are well known to an average professional mathematician and have remained open for N years. The larger the value of N, the harder the problem. Using examples from combinatorial group theory and low-dimensional topology, in this talk I will explain that solving such hard long-standing math problems holds enormous potential for AI algorithm development, providing a natural path toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
О докладчике: Сергей Гуков - профессор КалТех, выпускник МФТИ и Принстона, один из наиболее известных специалистов по теории струн и математической физике, в последние годы занимающийся применением методов Reinforcement Leaning к задачам математики и физики.

"He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 230 points, or 0.7%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.3% and 2.2%, respectively. All three indexes began the day with gains before selling off. Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications.
