DeepMind, the Google AI R&D lab, believes that the key to more capable AI systems might lie in uncovering new ways to solve challenging geometry problems. To that end, DeepMind today unveiled ...

Introducing new math concepts via already-worked examples can give students a significant boost in learning. But choosing the right problems makes a big difference. An analysis earlier this year of ...

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 ...

Sam Raskin has wrapped his head around a math problem so complex it took five academic studies — and more than 900 pages — to solve. The results are a sweeping, game-changing math proof that was ...

A system developed by Google’s DeepMind has set a new record for AI performance on geometry problems. DeepMind’s AlphaGeometry managed to solve 25 of the 30 geometry problems drawn from the ...

Current AI models struggle to solve research-level math problems, with the most advanced AI systems we have today solving just 2% of the hundreds of challenges faced. When you purchase through links ...

For all of the recent strides we’ve made in the math world—like a supercomputer finally solving the Sum of Three Cubes problem that puzzled mathematicians for 65 years—we’re forever crunching ...

Time to test your brain! Are you a puzzle person? Most of these hard math problems aren’t straightforward arithmetic. They challenge you to look at problems a different way, testing your logic and ...

Alan Veliz-Cuba has received funding from the Simons Foundation and the American Mathematical Society for some of his research. You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an ...

From writing essays to coding, there’s seemingly nothing modern AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot cannot accomplish. But even though they seem limitless on the surface, they’re certainly ...
