The second batch of “First Proof” problems is meant to evaluate AI’s usefulness for research-level math. The best model got ...

A ripple tells you something happened, but not exactly what. That is the core problem behind a hard class of equations that scientists use when they try to work backward from what they can measure to ...

Every year, thousands of college students from across the U.S. and Canada give up a full Saturday before finals begin to take a notoriously difficult, 6-hour math test — and not for a grade, but for ...

The ChatGPT maker reveals details of what’s officially known as OpenAI o1, which shows that AI needs more than scale to advance. The new model, dubbed OpenAI o1, can solve problems that stump existing ...

Only a few months ago, the question felt mostly philosophical: if artificial intelligence can help solve open math problems, what happens to the idea of human genius? That question is no longer ...

Math-M-Addicts students eagerly dive into complex math problems during class. In the building of the Speyer Legacy School in New York City, a revolutionary math program is quietly producing some of ...

OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who exposed its last embarrassing claim are backing it up.

There weren’t calculators or computers in medieval Europe. But there were math duels. Mathematicians would gather in public squares and pose tricky math problems to each other. Then they raced to ...
