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 ...
Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...
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 ...
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to ...
Many students struggle with mathematics at some stage in their educational journey, and similarly it is the same with their parents—they were students too right? And not everyone was good at math.
Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.
Exploring concepts such as observation and measurement in the fresh air can give students a new and playful perspective on ...
