This talk is a journey exploring the cosmos through the intersection of AI and astronomy. We'll see how machine learning, specifically computer vision and parameter inference, has revolutionised the identification and analysis of celestial bodies. I'll show you how AI has enriched my own projects, from modelling clusters of galaxies to enhancing astronomical datasets, illuminating the cosmos like never before. Importantly, I'll also delve into the role of language models, such as ChatGPT, in astronomical research. By facilitating improved data interpretation and communication, these models are not only transforming how we understand the cosmos, but also how we share these discoveries. However, it’s also important to emphasise the need for careful consideration of ethics in the deployment of AI, to ensure scientific integrity and inclusivity.
