Deep learning and machine learning don’t work. Quantitative math will always prevail, as it always has. Unfortunately, mathematical research isn’t there yet. We don’t have models for vision, audition and linguistics. Neuroscience and psychology are in their infancy, a good analogy would compare these fields to where physics was pre-Newton, Galileo era of understanding. I suspect that in the decades to come, these fields will influence mathematics the same way physics influenced calculus. Physics historically had a huge influence on math, in the coming century it will be neuroscience and psychology, in linking brains to behavior, and the quantitative laws that allow brains to give rise to minds.
