Shapiro's Conjecture says that two classical exponential polynomials over the complexes can have infinitely many common zeros only for algebraic reasons. I will explain the history of this, the connection to Schanuel's Conjecture, and sketch a proof for the complexes using Schanuel, as well as an unconditional proof for Zilber's fields.
