Fields Medalist Deng Yu reminds: humans cannot abandon independent thinking and become dogs for AI

Fellow of the Fields Medal Deng Yu recently warned on a forum that humans should not give up independent thinking due to reliance on AI, calling it the core characteristic that distinguishes humans from animals. He emphasized that mathematics is the purest carrier for testing human independent thinking ability and firmly believes that mathematics will never disappear in the AI era; otherwise, it would be a tragedy at the human level.
