Dylan Kane likes his math curriculum. But there’s one important piece missing, he says. The 7th grade math teacher in Leadville, Colo., uses a program that teaches math skills through real-world ...
Last month, OpenAI announced that its latest version of ChatGPT had solved a major math problem, one that had stumped experts ...
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.
In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...
Get out your timer and number two pencil to see if your arithmetic skills from grade school are still intact.
“If you are a mathematician,” one of the world’s leading mathematicians recently wrote, “you may want to make sure you are sitting down before reading further.” And you’ll definitely need to sit down ...
COOLIDGE, AZ — Last year, ABC15 met Imagine Coolidge Elementary Principal Erik Collins after he paid off a promise to students by sleeping on the school roof after they completed one million math ...
OpenAI claims its model solved a famous geometry problem that has eluded the world’s greatest mathematicians for 80 years — a breakthrough hailed as evidence of the bot’s creativity and “intuition.” ...
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.
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 ...
Goldbach’s conjecture sounds almost too simple: every even number greater than two should be the sum of two primes. Mathematicians have chased it for nearly 300 years, a publisher once offered $1 ...
Penn researchers have developed a smarter AI method for solving notoriously difficult inverse equations, which help scientists uncover hidden causes behind observable effects. By introducing ...
