In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

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

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.

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

OpenAI says its AI model solved a famous 80-year-old maths problem that puzzled experts for decades, marking a major ...

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

OpenAI has said that one of its unreleased AI reasoning models has solved a long-standing mathematics problem first proposed by Paul Erdos in 1946.

An independent test of four artificial intelligence models verified 10 previously unpublished mathematical problems: the ETH Zurich model solved six problems, while other publicly available systems ...
