ABSTRACT:
There is a well-known statement by A. Einstein that there are two ways to live this life. The first, to consider that miracles do not happen, the other, to consider that everything around is a miracle. These words can be paraphrased in relation to mathematics. There are two ways of thinking: some believe that mathematics is necessary in all spheres of human activity and that it teaches the brain to think logically, thereby helping to put both human thoughts and activities in order. Others, on the contrary, believe that mathematics is out of date and that high-tech machines are gradually taking its place. Which one is right? The article attempts to reflect on this topic.
KEYWORDS:mathematics, digital technology, digitalization of the economy, education, academic training, teaching mathematics, exam, rationality, irrationality, STEM, the modern world.
