ChatGPT's breakthrough is not what it seems.

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

OpenAI's AI helped overturn a longstanding math conjecture by finding a counterexample, highlighting a powerful new way to ...

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.

After 80 years of fruitless struggle by human mathematicians, a major geometry conjecture has at last been solved—via a straightforward query to a chatbot. “No previous AI-generated proof has come ...

A Mathematician with early access to XAI Grok 4.20, found a new Bellman function for one of the problems he had been working on with my student N. Alpay. Not an Erdős problem, but original research.

OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who exposed its last embarrassing claim are backing it up.

OpenAI said one of its internal models had made a breakthrough with a challenge first posed by Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős in 1946. Experts say this result could indicate that AI is capable of ...

Get your timer out and see whether you can remember the golden rule from grade school math class.

Do you stare at a math word problem and feel completely stuck? You're not alone. These problems mix reading comprehension with complex math concepts, making them a common hurdle for students. The good ...
