To learn math, students must build a mental toolbox of facts and procedures needed for different problems. But students who can recall these foundational facts in isolation often struggle to use them ...

You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an everyday problem, such as calculating a tip at a restaurant or determining the square footage of a room. But what role does math play ...

A new benchmark pitting AI against previously unseen maths problems shows systems still fall short of top human expertise.

Among high school students and adults, girls and women are much more likely to use traditional, step-by-step algorithms to solve basic math problems – such as lining up numbers to add, starting with ...

Google DeepMind’s AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 are milestones for AI reasoning. This story originally appeared in The Algorithm, our weekly newsletter on AI. To get stories like this in your inbox ...

AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 are steps toward building systems that can reason, which could unlock exciting new capabilities. AI models can easily generate essays and other types of text. However, ...
