E179 - Math education in the AI-age - Henrik Appert

In Episode 179 of the AIAW Podcast, we’re joined by Henrik Appert, Founder and CEO of Magma Math, for a fascinating conversation on AI and the future of mathematical thinking and learning. As AI systems become increasingly capable of solving mathematical problems instantly, the deeper question emerges: what does it actually mean for humans to think mathematically? Together with host Henrik Göthberg and guest co-host Anders Enström, we explore how AI is transforming classrooms, what may be fundamentally broken in how mathematics is taught today, and how new tools can strengthen human learning and peer interaction. From the philosophy of mathematical reasoning to the realities of school system adoption, and from workforce implications to the broader societal impact of improving global mathematical literacy, this episode examines how education may evolve in a world where machines can calculate but humans still need to understand.
