UCLA professor and mathematician Terence Tao has sounded the alarm over the accelerating AI race in math happening right now.

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 ...

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 ...

Last month, OpenAI announced that its latest version of ChatGPT had solved a major math problem, one that had stumped experts for 80 years. This was considered among the most important unsolved ...

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 ...

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

From writing essays to coding, there’s seemingly nothing modern AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot cannot accomplish. But even though they seem limitless on the surface, they’re certainly ...

NASA’s Airspace Systems Program and the Ames Research Center are pleased to announce the public release of Smart Skies FlyBy Math: Distance-Rate-Time Problems in Air Traffic Control for Grades 5-9 ...
