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 ...
The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.
We've all been there: staring at a math test with a problem that seems impossible to solve. What if finding the solution to a problem took almost a century? For mathematicians who dabble in Ramsey ...
Large Language Models (LLMs) have ushered in a new era of artificial intelligence (AI) demonstrating remarkable capabilities in language generation, translation, and reasoning. Yet, LLMs often stumble ...
While this three-step process is the ideal process of applied math, reality is more complicated. Once I reach the second step where I want the solution of the math problem, very often, if not most of ...
If you’ve ever tried to use ChatGPT as a calculator, you’ve almost certainly noticed its dyscalculia: The chatbot is bad at math. And it’s not unique among AI in this regard. But tokenization isn’t ...
The employment future looks bright for people with strong math skills. But among the nation’s K-12 students, that represents a small and dwindling demographic. What’s to blame for students’ poor math ...
