Hey, Civil Engineer here. Although I totally understand what our pure math friends are saying, I want to emphasize that the nature of math is interpreting and validating results, not doing the math. You may not be aware from the other side of your moat of very difficult or abstract concepts, but technology has been slowly removing friction and optimizing for efficiency for every other math user for a long time now. I understand that it's not fun to have AI do an aspect of your job better than you, but as perpetual students it's our job to turn the tools into progress. Also, I think that anyone standing on the "no AI in math" hill will die on it, and will die on it soon.
