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.
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to ...
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 ...
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.
Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...
