A decade after uncovering a mysterious mathematical relationship in the physics of "jamming," Nobel laureate Giorgio Parisi ...

What’s the secret to prompting an AI to solve math problems that have left humans stumped? Tell it to believe in itself ...

The dual agent AI system autonomously solved Anderson's conjecture from 2014 Rethlas explores problem-solving strategies like a human mathematician would Archon transforms potential proofs into ...

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 ...

Some, however, find that bridging fields opens new realms of possibility. Henry Kvinge, who trained as a mathematician but ...

Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

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 ...

AI is powerful. But it will not solve bad data or broken processes. In fact, it can magnify errors with great confidence.

Mathematician Kevin Buzzard of Imperial College London is training computers how to prove one of the most famous problems in math history: Fermat’s last theorem. Resolving the problem isn’t the point.
