AI math proof verification reached a new frontier as DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős research problems with Lean-verified proofs, some unsolved for 56 years. The May 2026 Science Ne ...
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 ...
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.
Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...
Using AI chatbots for even just 10 minutes may have a shockingly negative impact on people’s ability to think and problem-solve, according to a new study from researchers at Carnegie Mellon, MIT, ...
After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all. I’m standing in front ...
When a startup struggles, founders usually assume the solution is obvious: more marketing, more hiring, or more capital. But in my experience advising founders, the real issue is usually something ...
