After 80 years of fruitless struggle by human mathematicians, a major geometry conjecture has at last been solved—via a straightforward query to a chatbot. “No previous AI-generated proof has come ...

The dual agent AI system autonomously solved Anderson's conjecture from 2014 Rethlas explores problem-solving strategies like a human mathematician would Archon transforms potential proofs into ...

Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

Many students appear to be completing assignments faster while learning less from them. This conclusion comes from one of the largest studies of how generative AI is changing student behavior and ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

Mathematician Kevin Buzzard of Imperial College London is training computers how to prove one of the most famous problems in math history: Fermat’s last theorem. Resolving the problem isn’t the point.

The verdict, it seems, is in: artificial intelligence is not about to replace mathematicians. That is the immediate takeaway from the “First Proof” challenge—perhaps the most robust test yet of the ...

In December 2025, a group of researchers from around the world, including UC Berkeley math professor Nikhil Srivastava, gathered inside the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at UC Berkeley.

While nearly every industry is racing to integrate artificial intelligence, most schools are still teaching high school math the way it’s been done for decades–rooted in instructional material that is ...
