Kristin Lauter - Artificial Intelligence & Cryptography: Privacy and Security in AI era - b=M2L 2025

Barcelona Mathematics and Machine Learning (b=M2L) Colloquium Series https://mat.uab.cat/bM2L The Barcelona Mathematics and Machine Learning (b=M2L) Colloquium Series aims to bring to a general audience of mathematicians, computer scientists and interested students the interactions between mathematics and machine learning, as well as their latest developments. What are the mathematics behind machine learning? What can machine learning do for mathematicians? Artificial Intelligence & Cryptography: Privacy and Security in the AI era, 27th March 17:00 CET Kristin Lauter - Meta AI Research Abstract: How is Artificial Intelligence changing your life and the world? How do you expect your data to be kept secure and private in the future? Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the science of utilizing data to formulate mathematical models that predict outcomes with high assurance. Such predictions can be used to make decisions automatically or give recommendations with high confidence. Cryptography is the science of protecting the privacy and security of data. This talk will explain the dynamic relationship between cryptography and AI and how AI can be used to attack post-quantum cryptosystems. This activity is organized by the Department of Mathematics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona with the goal of sharing it with all the Barcelona universities and research centres and the global community.
