OpenAI makes big splash with AI finding math problem breakthrough. Real lesson is to use AI to find counterexamples. An AI ...

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians have struggled to solve a classic geometry puzzle first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946: the ...

Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős’ ‘planar unit distance conjecture’ has stood since 1946 – but an AI disproof has made ...

Google DeepMind said AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős problems using Lean-verified proofs. The claim has sharpened ...

Only a few months ago, the question felt mostly philosophical: if artificial intelligence can help solve open math problems, ...

Artificial intelligence built by OpenAI has cracked a decades-old conjecture by Paul Erdős, which mathematicians have hailed ...

OpenAI announced this week that one of its general-purpose reasoning models made a breakthrough that has grabbed the ...

Google’s latest milestone comes just days after OpenAI said one of its AI models cracked the famous “planar unit distance ...

Bionic brain rot? New research suggests that AI can compromise cognitive function and problem-solving abilities in as little ...

OpenAI says an AI reasoning model disproved an 80-year-old Erdős geometry conjecture, raising new questions about AI’s role ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

The verdict, it seems, is in: artificial intelligence is not about to replace mathematicians. That is the immediate takeaway from the “First Proof” challenge—perhaps the most robust test yet of the ...
