Abstract
Selection of works connecting AI, light-matter interactions, and dynamical systems theory will be presented, as well as related problems where AI could help us in the future. Light-matter interactions are considered in photonic crystals and metamaterials, “real” crystals irradiated by lasers, and artificial “crystals of light”. Can we repeatedly drop a laser from the top of the Bremen tower? (and why?) Can we design a particle accelerator on a tip of a pen? Can we make interstellar travels: at least to nearby stars?? These are some of the main questions I hope to consider. In case time allows, I will share my experience on working with Bosch Research and studying at DESY Startup School recently (where we designed a startup that shall be not #LikeABosch, but even better!). Optional questions are: Can AI predict a failure of a coffee machine, a particle accelerator, or the International Space Station? What about predicting a catastrophic earthquake, or collapse of society?
