Last month, OpenAI announced that its latest version of ChatGPT had solved a major math problem, one that had stumped experts ...

GenAI’s breakthrough in mathematics offers a lesson for medicine: solving healthcare’s biggest problems means questioning old ...

Kingsley Jones, CIO of Jevons Global, says the way the supply chains for fossil fuels and fertilizers work makes it relatively easy to predict where the supply shock due to the closure of the Strait ...

After 80 years of fruitless struggle by human mathematicians, a major geometry conjecture has at last been solved—via a straightforward query to a chatbot. “No previous AI-generated proof has come ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

Three mathematicians just proved a famous 30-year-old conjecture in geometry, with only a tiny assist from AI. The conjecture says that even within enormous, scattered and chaotic assemblages of ...

A 150-year-old rule in geometry has been proven wrong. Mathematicians found two different doughnut-shaped surfaces that look identical when measured locally but are actually different overall. For ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

For the past several years, America has been using its young people as lab rats in a sweeping, if not exactly thought-out, education experiment. Schools across the country have been lowering standards ...

Quantum materials can be loosely defined as materials for which quantum mechanical effects manifest on a macroscopic scale. Two classes of quantum materials are paradigmatic: superconductors, and ...

In the third century BCE, Apollonius of Perga asked how many circles one could draw that would touch three given circles at exactly one point each. It would take 1,800 years to prove the answer: eight ...

American high-school seniors’ scores on major math and reading tests fell to their lowest levels on record, according to results released Tuesday by the U.S. Education Department. Twelfth-graders’ ...
