Abstract

The subject of AI is vast, and the hype is tremendous. It has built up over the last decade to a feverish pitch. The acronym is being used broadly, even in areas that simply reflect the increasing power of more or less traditional computational tools. In this time of rapid change, I would like to address a few points that are relevant to our physics community, in particular the impact of AI on education, research, and employment. In these few pages, I can only touch on them to promote further inquiry and emphasize the urgency of staying informed and preparing for the (near) future.
