Abstract：Over the past few months, AI and AI agents have fundamentally shifted research methodologies in theoretical physics. This talk is divided into two parts. First, we provide an overview and real-world examples of AI integration in daily research, ranging from "vibe physics" via chat interfaces to systematic agent-assisted-research using Codex and Claude Code. Second, we introduce our custom-built AI framework for the theoretical physics workflow, showcasing how it automates and enhances literature reviews, idea discovery, mathematical calculations, and result checking.
Biography:Yi Wang, Professor of Physics at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Associate Director of its Space Science and Technology Institute, and an elected member of the Hong Kong Young Academy of Sciences. He was a Stephen Hawking Advanced Fellow at the University of Cambridge and was supported by the RGC Research Fellow Scheme of Hong Kong, and the NSFC Excellent Young Scientist Scheme (Hong Kong and Macau).His research spans theoretical high-energy physics and cosmology, and recently is also interested in application of AI in theoretical physics research. He is also active in popular science, having contributed to the sixth edition of 100,000 Whys and authored several popular science books. His science videos have received over 100 million views.
