At the National Assises of Artificial Intelligence, organized by Ouest-France in Caen, three well-known scientists—Cédric Villani, Sylvia Serfati, and François Pachet—spoke with students about the fast-moving world of artificial intelligence. The event focused on how AI is developing so quickly that it may challenge human abilities to learn, think, and create. Villani, Serfati, and Pachet shared their worries about how fast AI is changing, noting that it could lead to a "real erosion of craftsmanship" and the feeling that "we are outpaced." The scientists discussed how AI systems are becoming more capable of performing complex tasks, from writing text to creating music and art. They acknowledged the benefits of AI, such as its ability to solve difficult problems and improve efficiency in many areas. However, they also highlighted the risks, including the potential for AI to replace human roles in creative and intellectual fields. Villani, a mathematician and Fields Medal winner, emphasized that while AI can perform impressive tasks, it lacks the human element of intuition and creativity. He warned that if society does not carefully manage the development of AI, it could lead to a future where human skills are undervalued or replaced. Serfati, a researcher in AI and cognitive science, added that the speed of AI's progress is outpacing our ability to understand and regulate it. François Pachet, a computer scientist known for his work in AI and music, spoke about the impact of AI on creative industries. He noted that while AI can generate music and art, it does not replace the emotional and cultural context that humans bring to these fields. The scientists encouraged students to think critically about the role of AI in society and to consider how they can shape its future responsibly.
