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 ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...

A chatbot’s result for the 80-year-old “unit distance” conjecture is the first AI proof that would likely be published in ...

AI solved a math problem that stumped experts for 80 years, revealing deeper lessons about human cognition, focus, and ...

OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who ...

A ChatGPT AI has proved a conjecture with a method no human had thought of. Experts believe it may have further uses ...

OpenAI's AI model solved the famous unit distance problem, a question that had challenged mathematicians since 1946 ...

Only a few months ago, the question felt mostly philosophical: if artificial intelligence can help solve open math problems, ...

For decades, one of mathematics' most famous unsolved puzzles resisted the efforts of researchers around the world.

In September 2019, news broke regarding progress on this 82-year-old question, thanks to prolific mathematician Terence Tao. And while the story of Tao’s breakthrough is promising, the problem isn’t ...
