A general-purpose AI model has reportedly solved a problem that stumped mathematicians for four decades. Not a narrow, purpose-built system trained exclusively on proofs. A general-purpose model, the ...
In October 2024 I attended a workshop at Harvard University where mathematicians talked through the uses of artificial intelligence in their field. Most were less worried about the future of math than ...
Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.
