Abstract
Mathematics is changing. Computers are verifying proofs, checking calculations, and exploring complex structures that would overwhelm human effort. Yet curiosity-driven research is where tomorrow's breakthroughs are quietly prepared. In this invited article for the VSH-AEU Bulletin, these themes are illustrated through anecdotes centered on a mathematical object central to the author's work: the lattice.
