Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...
With automated proof-checkers, a problem can be broken up into small chunks, solved bit-by-bit, then reassembled with ...
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to ...
In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...
The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...
P vs. NP asks: are these two classes actually the same? If P = NP, then every “hard” problem is secretly fast to solve; we ...
Researchers at Google DeepMind have announced that their AI system, AlphaProof Nexus, has solved nine longstanding problems ...
OpenAI claims its model solved a famous geometry problem that has eluded the world’s greatest mathematicians for 80 years — a breakthrough hailed as evidence of the bot’s creativity and “intuition.” ...
OpenAI has once again made a big claim in the world of AI and mathematics. The company says that one of its latest AI reasoning models has successfully solved a famous geometry problem that remained ...
A general-purpose AI model has reportedly solved a problem that stumped mathematicians for four decades. Not a narrow, purpose-built system trained exclusively on proofs. A general-purpose model, the ...
In October 2024 I attended a workshop at Harvard University where mathematicians talked through the uses of artificial intelligence in their field. Most were less worried about the future of math than ...
