In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...

Yet an AI detector that is mostly reliable might in some ways be more dangerous than a broken one. While Pangram is accumulating the power to end reputations and careers, the tool does make mistakes, ...

News that large language models (LLM) have made major advances in solving Erdős problems – a set of problems formulated by the renowned 20 th-century mathematician Paul Erdős – has created an ...

Three mathematicians have laid out proof that solves a long-standing problem in mathematics. Even the mathematician—an Abel ...

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 ...

Quantum computing could lead to revolutions in cryptography, materials design and telecommunications. But fulfilling those promises could be many years away ...

New research suggests that reliance on AI assistants can have a negative impact on people’s ability to think and problem ...

The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics makes the argument that teachers, principals, and district leaders must “stay up to date on current AI trends” to prepare students for the future. But ...

AI cyberattacks are rapidly transforming the cybersecurity landscape, enabling attackers to automate and scale operations with unprecedented speed. Through machine learning hacking, adversaries can ...

Some readers may solve the problem procedurally: line up the two numbers, add the ones column, carry the one, and add the tens to get 43. Others might instead notice a creative shortcut: 29 + 14 is ...

In a dark room, in the middle of the night, a woman lies dreaming. Suddenly, her eyes beneath their lids dart crisply left-right, left-right. The eye signal means she knows she’s dreaming. Lucid ...

Study authors Hunter Schweiger (left) and Ash Robbins. Imagine balancing a ruler vertically in the palm of your hand: you have to constantly pay attention to the angle of the ruler and make many small ...
