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

In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...

OpenAI's AI disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, an 80-year-old geometry problem. Days later, Google DeepMind solved ...

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 ...

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

OpenAI makes big splash with AI finding math problem breakthrough. Real lesson is to use AI to find counterexamples. An AI Insider analysis and scoop.

OpenAI said one of its internal models had made a breakthrough with a challenge first posed by Hungarian mathematician Paul ...

Google’s latest milestone comes just days after OpenAI said one of its AI models cracked the famous “planar unit distance problem”, which had been unsolved for the last 80 years.

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary ...
