The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.
Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal model—and what that could mean for mathematics.
A legendary maths riddle finally has an answer. OpenAI says one of its general-purpose AI models has autonomously solved a famous problem first posed in 1946, with external mathematicians checking the ...
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.
Three mathematicians just proved a famous 30-year-old conjecture in geometry, with only a tiny assist from AI. The conjecture says that even within enormous, scattered and chaotic assemblages of ...
Git isn't hard to learn, and when you combine Git and GitHub, you've just made the learning process significantly easier. This two-hour Git and GitHub video tutorial shows you how to get started with ...
Performances in N.Y.C. Advertisement Supported by The actress stars as a haunted genius opposite Don Cheadle as her father in David Auburn’s 2001 drama. This revival, though, exposes the play’s lack ...
In ancient Greece, Euclid showed that if you agree on a small list of preliminary principles, or axioms, you can use deductive reasoning to reveal all sorts of new mathematical truths. But although ...
VUB's Data Analytics Lab has published new results showing that it is possible to develop original mathematical proofs using commercial language models. In a paper posted to the arXiv preprint server, ...
Marijn Heule turns mathematical statements into something like Sudoku puzzles, then has computers go to work on them. His proofs have been called “disgusting,” but they go beyond what any human can do ...
