Researchers cracked a 50-year-old math problem scribbled by Richard Feynman over lunch. The equations show that humans are ...

In October 2024 I attended a workshop at Harvard University where mathematicians talked through the uses of artificial intelligence in their field. Most were less worried about the future of math than ...

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

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

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...

But much of the A.I. capacity will remain in the private sector. So a public agenda for A.I. should also give the private ...

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

Dr Don Hamson says the breadth of opportunity in global shares provides a fertile hunting ground for yield hungry investors.

I have a confession that probably won't surprise anyone who knows me well: I love reading books about mathematicians. Not because I understand the dense mathematics. I struggled through four semesters ...

A brainy riddle that's stumped mathematicians since World War II appears to have been cracked via artificial intelligence. OpenAI says one of its AI models has solved the "unit distance problem," a ...
