Some have interpreted this as the defining moment when A.I. surpassed human prowess in math, akin to the moment in 1997 when ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

To learn math, students must build a mental toolbox of facts and procedures needed for different problems. But students who can recall these foundational facts in isolation often struggle to use them ...

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.

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.
