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.

OpenAI has achieved a remarkable milestone by solving the “unit distance problem,” a mathematical conjecture that has challenged researchers for over 80 years. This problem, originally posed by ...

Mathematician Kevin Buzzard of Imperial College London is training computers how to prove one of the most famous problems in math history: Fermat’s last theorem. Resolving the problem isn’t the point.

Clarification: This story has been updated to clarify how University of Colorado researchers handle their data collection. A student digs into a math problem that references his favorite superhero, ...
