Last month, OpenAI announced that its latest version of ChatGPT had solved a major math problem, one that had stumped experts ...

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary ...

When one part of your body hurts, it makes sense to assume the problem begins where the pain lies, but what if your back pain could be traced to your shoes? Or if a specific form problem that shows up ...

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 ...

“If you are a mathematician,” one of the world’s leading mathematicians recently wrote, “you may want to make sure you are sitting down before reading further.” And you’ll definitely need to sit down ...

It started almost by accident. At my startup Dwelly, I constantly push the limits of what AI tools can actually do. One day I just typed into a chat: “Can you prove P ≠ NP?”—referring to the problem ...

The tech giant says a breakthrough in data center networking has dramatically accelerated the flow of information through its massive cloud infrastructure. The new technology hinges on a “quasi-random ...

Meghan Markle’s decision to attend a high-profile Geneva event alone has sparked speculation about her next chapter in the public eye. As per insiders, the Duchess of Sussex allegedly wanted the event ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

This article is part of a package on the future of quantum computing. Read about the quest to develop these machines here and see an illustrated field guide to qubits here. The 21st-century fervor ...

In October 2024 I attended a workshop at Harvard University where mathematicians talked through the uses of artificial intelligence in their field. Most were less worried about the future of math than ...
