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 it matters.

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to ...

OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who exposed its last embarrassing claim are backing it up.

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.

A chatbot’s result for the 80-year-old “unit distance” conjecture is the first AI proof that would likely be published in math’s top journal if humans had done it alone ...

OpenAI's AI helped overturn a longstanding math conjecture by finding a counterexample, highlighting a powerful new way to ...

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

Students with learning disabilities and other challenges may find word problems difficult even when they know the math, so ...
