2025 PROGRAM
Inaugural cycle
The Departments of Mathematics of the major Milano Universities (Università di Milano, Politecnico di Milano, Università di Milano-Bicocca and Università Bocconi) are pleased to announce the inaugural cycle of this new distinguished lecture series. Over the years to come, mathematicians of international prominence will present and discuss the most important new ideas and breakthroughs in contemporary mathematics and its applications. Each lecture should be suitable for a general mathematical audience, especially Ph.D. students and Post-docs. The inaugural cycle of lectures is scheduled to take place from early April until mid-July of 2025.

Scientific and society challenges behind the confusing power of artificial intelligence.
Since the 2012 breakthrough of neural networks, Artificial Intelligence has made rapid progress and made the headlines all over the world. In 2017, as a mathematician and Member of Parliament, I was in charge of preparing the French national AI strategy, leading me to review all the issues related to the status of AI in terms of science, applications, society and political issues, as well as economic and ecological challenges. The experimental nature of the field, the amazing bluff and buzz which go with it, and the impressive amounts of money poured into these techniques, make the case all the more tricky and interesting. How can we scientists, experts and non-experts, cope with this special situation?
