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 ...

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 it matters.

A chatbot’s result for the 80-year-old “unit distance” conjecture is the first AI proof that would likely be published in math’s top journal if humans had done it alone ...

Penn Engineers have developed a new way to use AI to solve inverse partial differential equations (PDEs), a particularly challenging class of mathematical problems with broad implications for ...

News that large language models (LLM) have made major advances in solving Erdős problems – a set of problems formulated by the renowned 20 th-century mathematician Paul Erdős – has created an ...

A new benchmark pitting AI against previously unseen maths problems shows systems still fall short of top human expertise.

Mathematics, like many other scientific endeavors, is increasingly using artificial intelligence. Of course, math is the backbone of AI, but mathematicians are also turning to these tools for tasks ...

In October 2024, news broke that Facebook parent company Meta had cracked an "impossible" problem that had stymied mathematicians for a century. In this case, the solvers weren't human. An artificial ...

Study after study has revealed that artificial intelligence is adversely affecting students’ ability to think critically, solve problems, and formulate their own ideas without the assistance of ...

However, people must first realize there’s a problem and understand how technology can solve it before AI can make a meaningful difference. When things click, it’s always a matter of consumer ...

Critics of artificial intelligence caution that, as a relatively new technology, its long-term effects on the human brain are still unknown. But a new study shows that AI could be dangerous even in ...
