Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...

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

A general-purpose reasoning model, not a math-trained system, produced a new family of point configurations that broke Paul ...

Artificial intelligence built by OpenAI has cracked a decades-old conjecture by Paul Erdős, which mathematicians have hailed ...

A 23‑year‑old amateur maths enthusiast, Liam Price, used ChatGPT‑5.4 Pro to solve one of Erdős’s long‑standing “primitive set” problems, which had remained unresolved since the early 1960s.

Take a group of runners circling a track at unique, constant paces. Answering the question of how many will always end up running alone, no matter their speed, has vexed mathematicians for decades.

The tipping point came in the summer of 2025. That July, several artificial intelligence models solved five out of six problems at the International Mathematical Olympiad, an annual challenge for some ...

Homeowners should periodically inspect their trees for warning signs. Signs of an unhealthy tree include falling bark, abnormal leaves and the presence of fungus or mushrooms. Certain tree species, ...

GPT just keeps getting better at mathematics, increasingly solving the trickiest of problems. In January, AI testing company Epoch AI found that a previous version of the AI model, GPT-5.2 Pro had ...
