"Mathematics is not a game of chess," one Fields Medal winner told CNET. Mathematicians worry AI companies are just trying to ...

A month after its Millennium Prize solution, OpenAI released findings on more than 300 problems—and tried to win back the ...

Why would you want to ruin your career?” an OpenAI exec told him. “If you don’t want me to be nice, then I don’t have to be nice.” ...

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 ...

Today may go down as the biggest day in math in at least two decades, if not far longer. In a development that crystallizes an existential shift in humankind’s oldest intellectual discipline, ...

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.

OpenAI has released new AI-generated mathematical results, along with proof formalisations, reasoning summaries and compute ...

Google DeepMind's Gemini agents found proofs for open math problems, including Erdős problems unsolved for 56 years, at low ...

Artificial intelligence systems may be good at generating text, recognizing images, and even solving basic math problems—but when it comes to advanced mathematical reasoning, they are hitting a wall.

Sam Raskin has wrapped his head around a math problem so complex it took five academic studies — and more than 900 pages — to solve. The results are a sweeping, game-changing math proof that was ...
