AI agents will drive mathematical research in the near future, generating entirely new theories, languages, and conceptual frameworks.

I would like to suggest the following conjecture. In the near future, AI agents will drive mathematical research, generating entirely new theories, languages, and conceptual frameworks. The role of human mathematicians, including those at the highest level, will fundamentally shift. Rather than driving original discoveries, their primary focus will be to interpret, structure, and master the advanced mathematics produced by AI, while human capabilities gradually fall behind the accelerating pace of AI agents.In other words, mathematical knowledge may come to resemble an expanding universe, most of which lies beyond human reach. Somewhere within it, there will be a small analogue of our Earth, from which groups of mathematicians will set out on expeditions into the vast, unexplored regions of mathematical space.
