The second batch of “First Proof” problems is meant to evaluate AI’s usefulness for research-level math. The best model got ...

P vs. NP asks: are these two classes actually the same? If P = NP, then every “hard” problem is secretly fast to solve; we ...

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

In October 2024, news broke that Facebook parent company Meta had cracked an "impossible" problem that had stymied mathematicians for a century. In this case, the solvers weren't human. An artificial ...

Only a few months ago, the question felt mostly philosophical: if artificial intelligence can help solve open math problems, what happens to the idea of human genius? That question is no longer ...

Do you stare at a math word problem and feel completely stuck? You're not alone. These problems mix reading comprehension with complex math concepts, making them a common hurdle for students. The good ...

Mathematics, like many other scientific endeavors, is increasingly using artificial intelligence. Of course, math is the backbone of AI, but mathematicians are also turning to these tools for tasks ...

PAID ADVERTORIAL - That familiar feeling of dread can creep in around 7 p.m. on a school night. Your child slides a worksheet across the table, looks up with hopeful eyes, and asks for help with a ...
