Abstract

We present some basic recommendations for (mostly graduate) students when it comes to choosing to use, or avoid, AI in their mathematical research and education. These include: maintaining a connection to the tried and true ways for learning mathematics; focusing on communication and the sharing of ideas with other people; thinking critically about the politics of labor and organizing with your cohort and others at your home institution; and being in touch with the realities of the impact of AI infrastructure on land and people.
