SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:(Artificial) Intelligence saturation and the future of work
DESCRIPTION:Macroeconomic models typically treat AI as just another form of capital and predict a slowly evolving world\, while computer science scaling laws applied to the whole economy predict explosive growth and the potential for a singularity-like event. Both views gloss over the asymmetric reality that intelligence capital or AI scales at computer-science speeds\, whereas physical capital and labor do not. What’s missing is a unified\, parameter-driven framework that can nest assumptions from both economics and computer science to generate meaningful predictions of AI’s wage and output impacts. Here we use a constant elasticity of substitution (CES) production function framework that separates physical and intelligence sectors. Whereas physical capabilities let us affect the world\, intelligence capabilities let us do this as well: The two are complementary. Given complementarity between the two sectors\, the marginal returns to intelligence saturate\, no matter how fast AI scales. Because the price of AI capital is falling much faster than that of physical capital\, intelligence tasks are automated first\, pushing human labor toward the physical sector. The impact of automation on wages is theoretically ambiguous and can be non-monotonic in the degree of automation. A necessary condition for automation to decrease wages is that the share of employment in the intelligence sector decreases\; this condition is not sufficient because automation can raise output enough to offset negative reallocation effects. In our baseline simulation\, wages increase and then decrease with automation. Our interactive tool shows how parameter changes shift that trajectory. Wage decreases are steeper at high levels of automation when the outputs of the physical and intelligence sectors are more substitutable. After full automation\, more AI and more physical capital increase wages\, a classic prediction from standard production functions in capital and labor. Yet\, when intelligence and physical are complementary\, the marginal wage impact of AI capital saturates as AI grows large. More broadly\, the model offers a structured way to map contrasting intuitions from economics and computer science into a shared parameter space\, enabling clearer policy discussions and guiding empirical work to identify which growth and wage trajectories are plausible.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning seminar in algebraic combinatorics: The Fundamental Theorem of Finite Semidistributive Lattices
DESCRIPTION:Last time\, we saw that the lattice of torsion classes is completely semidistributive. Motivated in part by this fact\, Reading–Speyer–Thomas proved a fundamental theorem of finite semidistributive lattices. We'll give the necessary definitions to state the theorem\, give some examples\, and explain the connection to torsion classes. Time permitting\, we will also describe canonical join representations and the canonical join complex of a finite semidistributive lattice.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: Tate Conjecture for Shimura Varieties of Type (G(U(1\,n-1) x U(n-1\,1)))
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we will discuss the Tate conjecture for Shimura varieties of type (G(U(1\,n-1) x U(n-1\,1))). We will first describe the supersingular locus of these Shimura varieties\, which provides Gysin maps induced by the closed immersions of the irreducible components of the supersingular locus.\n\nUsing these maps\, we reduce the Tate conjecture to showing that a certain matrix has nonzero determinant\, where the entries are given by Hecke actions and incidence numbers. The overall strategy is similar to the proof of the Tate conjecture for more general Shimura varieties\, but expressed in a slightly more elaborate language.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Keeping Children Safe on the Road: Emerging Evidence from Pregnancy to Adolescence
DESCRIPTION:This presentation brings together two applied behavioural studies that sit at different points in the life course but share a common challenge: safety-critical behaviours often change when people move outside familiar contexts. The presentation will begin with pregnancy and seatbelt use - an area where compliance is high\, yet 'correct' use is far from assured\, and then move to adolescence\, focusing on independent mobility and safety in the context of rideshare use.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Symplectomorphisms of S² × S²
DESCRIPTION:Unlike Riemannian geometry\, symplectic topology is locally flexible\; by Darboux's and Moser’s theorems\, it carries no local invariants. However\, despite this local flexibility\, Mikhail Gromov revealed global rigidity phenomena in 1985 by introducing the study of J-holomorphic curves in symplectic manifolds. In this talk\, we will explore J-holomorphic curves in S² × S² and see how they can be used to understand the topology of the group of symplectomorphisms.
