In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...

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 ...

P vs. NP asks: are these two classes actually the same? If P = NP, then every “hard” problem is secretly fast to solve; we ...

This marks one of the clearest examples so far of AI helping to solve a longstanding mathematical problem that had stumped the experts. Written for you by our author Paul Arnold, edited by Gaby Clark, ...

OpenAI has once again made a big claim in the world of AI and mathematics. The company says that one of its latest AI reasoning models has successfully solved a famous geometry problem that remained ...

Given the sheer breadth of options available to consumers, buying a new refrigerator can be a dizzying task. It can also be a fun one, however, because who doesn't enjoy bringing a shiny new appliance ...

Penn researchers have developed a smarter AI method for solving notoriously difficult inverse equations, which help scientists uncover hidden causes behind observable effects. By introducing ...
