The race is on to develop an artificial intelligence that can do pure mathematics, and top mathematicians just threw down the gauntlet with an exam of actual, unsolved problems that are relevant to ...

Imagine that you want to know the most efficient way to make a torus—a doughnut-shaped mathematical object—from origami paper. Instead of seeming almost perfectly smooth, the torus that you envision ...

Frustrated by AI industry claims of proving math results without transparency, a team of leading academics has proposed a better way ...

AxiomProver solved a real open math conjecture using formal verification, signaling a shift from AI that assists research to ...

Mathematics, like many other scientific endeavors, is increasingly using artificial intelligence. Of course, math is the backbone of AI, but mathematicians are also turning to these tools for tasks ...

Learn how zero-proof bookkeeping verifies accounting accuracy by systematically subtracting entries. Ideal for small ...

Large language models struggle to solve research-level math questions. It takes a human to assess just how poorly they ...

Mathematicians finally understand the behavior of an important class of differential equations that describe everything from ...

Right now, molecules in the air are moving around you in chaotic and unpredictable ways. To make sense of such systems, physicists use a law known as the Boltzmann distribution, which, rather than ...

Axiom says its AI found solutions to several long-standing math problems, a sign of the technology’s steadily advancing reasoning capabilities.

Investors usually fund startups based on metrics involving revenue, profits or product usage. But investors backing newer AI ...
