Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...
AI is now helping produce research-level mathematics, but experts say verifying proofs not generating them is becoming the ...
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 ...
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.
OpenAI's AI helped overturn a longstanding math conjecture by finding a counterexample, highlighting a powerful new way to ...
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 ...
Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...
The second batch of “First Proof” problems is meant to evaluate AI’s usefulness for research-level math. The best model got six or seven of the ten questions right.
The GSMM Camp is a weeklong workshop that builds interdisciplinary problem-solving skills for graduate and advanced undergraduate students. Participants work in teams on mathematically rich problems ...
You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an everyday problem, such as calculating a tip at a restaurant or determining the square footage of a room. But what role does math play ...
