I'm particularly excited about AI accelerating theorem provers and optimization problems (think: traveling salesman). These problems are NP-hard and scale very poorly. We would see huge efficiency gains in most industries if they scaled better. Recently there has been some very exciting research in using neural networks to accelerate and scale MILP and LP solvers.

For reference, optimization problems include:

  • SpaceX rocket landing
  • Car navigation systems
  • Electric grid operations/markets
  • Portfolio optimization
  • Stock and options trading
  • Airline fleet operations
  • Ship/Truck logistics
