The race is on to develop an artificial intelligence that can do pure mathematics, and top mathematicians just threw down the ...

A marriage of formal methods and LLMs seeks to harness the strengths of both.

If pure math can teach us anything, it’s this: occasionally, your special interest might just change the world. For Joshua Zahl and Hong Wang, that special interest was the Kakeya conjecture. “I read ...

Axiom says its AI found solutions to several long-standing math problems, a sign of the technology’s steadily advancing reasoning capabilities.

Computer-assisted of mathematical proofs are not new. For example, computers were used to confirm the so-called 'four color theorem.' In a short release, 'Proof by computer,' the American Mathematical ...

There’s a curious contradiction at the heart of today’s most capable AI models that purport to “reason”: They can solve routine math problems with accuracy, yet when faced with formulating deeper ...

Some scientific discoveries matter because they reveal something new — the double helical structure of DNA, for example, or the existence of black holes. However, some revelations are profound because ...

Even if we mapped every genome, mathematics would still confront us with unending questions Dr Reyaz Ahmad “Mathematics is the only infinite human activity,” the legendary problem-poser Paul Erdős ...
