Professional mathematicians have been stunned by the progress amateurs have made in solving long-standing problems with the ...

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 ...

The card game Set has long inspired mathematicians to create interesting problems. Now, a technique based on large language models (LLMs) is showing that artificial intelligence (AI) can help ...

DeepMind has used a large language model (LLM) to generate a novel solution to one of humanity’s toughest math problems — in a breakthrough that could herald a new era in AI development. The model, ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

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 ...

If you said "seven," you're right. And you're also better at math than state-of-the-art deep learning neural networks. AI researchers from Google's DeepMind this week published research in which they ...

I've been teaching second and third-graders mathematical problem solving for six years. In that time, I've learned that kids are more apt to enjoy math if they already have a strong foundation. Kids ...
