Deep Tide TechFlow message: On July 27, at the 2026 International Congress of Mathematicians, three of the four Fields Medal laureates publicly stated that they would not shift to AI research, even though they believe their work will soon be automated by AGI. SemiAnalysis, in its report, quoted computer scientist Dijkstra’s view, commenting that programming is one of the hardest areas in applied mathematics, and that weaker mathematicians should stick to pure mathematics research. The Fields Medal is one of the highest honors in the mathematics community, awarded every four years to mathematicians under 40 who have made outstanding contributions. This stance reflects the nuanced attitudes of top mathematicians toward AI’s impact.
