Drawn from what Terence Tao said

What these subjects mean

mathematics Doing mathematics: proof, conjecture, and what mathematicians want that other fields do not.

AI and science Models used to do science rather than to write: rediscovering laws from data, compressing decades of biology, refereeing a proof.
