How can you have a proof without proving anything? Mathematicians found a way and, in the process, came to blows over it – ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Just a week after an AI disproved an 80-year-old conjecture and astonished mathematicians, another conjecture that had stood for half a century has fallen, inspired by the same techniques, but this ...

Abstract: The Set Partitioning Problem (SPP) aims to obtain non-empty disjoint subsets of objects such that their union equals the whole set of objects, and the partition meets some prespecified ...

OpenAI had generated plenty of buzz by coming up with a breakthrough for an 80-year-old Erdős problem, but Anthropic now says that it has also come up with a solution with its Mythos model. The unit ...

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians have struggled to solve a classic geometry puzzle first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946: the planar unit distance problem. The question posed by the legendary Hungarian ...

OpenAI announced on May 20, 2026, that an internal general-purpose reasoning model had produced a counterexample to Paul Erdős's 1946 unit distance conjecture — a result in discrete geometry that had ...
