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 ...
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 ...
Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...
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.
We’re seeing some new developments in AI models that are shedding light on one of the technology’s most prominent gaps – its relative inability to do math well. Some experts note that AI is ...
Exploring concepts such as observation and measurement in the fresh air can give students a new and playful perspective on ...
