Universality, probability, and the growth of rough surfaces

On Friday there was a nice UQ Maths and Physics Colloquium, Beyond the Gaussian Universality Class, given by Ivan Corwin,
The talk was a very nice example of synergy between fundamental physics and maths research.
There are interesting connections with simple one-dimensional models for surface growth, the Kardan-Parisi-Zhang equation, the KPZ universality class, traffic models, random matrix theory, directed polymers in random media, ....

What is your experience of using AI for research in condensed matter theory?

 I have been dabbling a little with using AI (at a very basic level) to help me with some research problems. For example, in a recent prepr...
