The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...

AI solved a math problem that stumped experts for 80 years, revealing deeper lessons about human cognition, focus, and ...

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...

For decades, one of mathematics' most famous unsolved puzzles resisted the efforts of researchers around the world.

OpenAI's AI model solved the famous unit distance problem, a question that had challenged mathematicians since 1946 ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians have struggled to solve a classic geometry puzzle first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946: the ...

The puzzle poses a deceptively simple question that boils down to: How many pairs of dots on a piece of paper can be the same ...
