With automated proof-checkers, a problem can be broken up into small chunks, solved bit-by-bit, then reassembled with ...

A general-purpose reasoning model, not a math-trained system, produced a new family of point configurations that broke Paul Erdős's 1946 upper bound for the pla ...

FORTUNATELY, NOBODY WAS INJURED. CONTROLLING THE PYTHON POPULATION HERE IN FLORIDA, GOVERNOR DESANTIS SPOKE IN STUART TODAY ABOUT SOME NEW ACTIONS THE STATE PLANS TO TAKE TO CONTROL THE GROWTH OF ...

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 ...

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 claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians have struggled to solve a classic geometry puzzle first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946: the planar unit distance problem. The question posed by the legendary Hungarian ...

A brainy riddle that's stumped mathematicians since World War II appears to have been cracked via artificial intelligence. OpenAI says one of its AI models has solved the "unit distance problem," a ...
