In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...
AI math proof verification reached a new frontier as DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős research problems with Lean-verified proofs, some unsolved for 56 years. The May 2026 Science Ne ...
In 2024, Olli Loukola of the Finland co-authored a study demonstrating that bumblebees could cooperate to solve complex ...
The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...
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.
P vs. NP asks: are these two classes actually the same? If P = NP, then every “hard” problem is secretly fast to solve; we ...
Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal ...
In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...
