Abstract: In this presentation, I tell the story of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) paradox from its discovery to the present day. While focusing on recent developments, I introduce the concept of adiabatic invariants, a generalization of conserved quantities, as a means to solve the FPUT paradox within a probabilistic framework. Additionally, I shed light on unresolved issues that can be approached through various methodologies, including potential utilization of Neural Networks.
