What sub-discipline of mathematics do you think will be the most "lucrative" in the future? When will the time of algebraic geometry finally be over?

Something something... useful for computing efficiently or vastly.
Maybe some algebra useful for AI related fields.
Definetly optimization aswell.

Rational Trigonometry.

Machine Learning. Seriously.

Most lucrative? Don't think I could say. I do thing graph theory, combinatorics and optimization will be more lucrative in the future than they are now due to the very large networks in the modern world.

I have a Wildberger folder. Do you?

Optimization will naturally be useful. Machine learning as well. But what about classical fields like analysis, algebra and geometry?

Is it only my feeling that analysis got dominated by geometry?

Analysis is already drained of it's potential. Homology and other algebra manipulating data easily and efficiently. For example abstract algebra is very useful for describing abstract concepts such as rings and other useful items when studying algorithms and data structures.

Exactly how drunk are you right now.

aren't rings entirely within the subject of abstract algebra?

You could say that, but you would have to make the argument that algebraic geometry is just commutative algebra with additional structures, which might piss off some people.

I vaguely remember this shit being in fashion some time ago, before I gained my mathematical chops:
>Algebraic Geometry and Statistical Learning Theory
http://watanabe-www.math.dis.titech.ac.jp/users/swatanab/ag-slt.html
But I don't recall any practical results that came from it.

seconding machine learning

they're important, but mostly tapped out fields

Will divine trigonometry be any useful?
