Reflection explores future of interdisciplinarity through generative AI, emphasizing Heisenberg's theories and public knowledge.
This ISR 50th anniversary reflection examines the future of interdisciplinarity from the standpoint of generative artificial intelligence's potential challenge to Heisenberg's open/closed theory distinction, which has influenced modern thinking about interdisciplinarity. The challenge is epitomised by Don Swanson's idea of ‘undiscovered public knowledge’.
