The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.

ChatGPT's breakthrough is not what it seems.

OpenAI said one of its internal models had made a breakthrough with a challenge first posed by Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős in 1946. Experts say this result could indicate that AI is capable of ...

For decades, one of mathematics' most famous unsolved problems quietly frustrated some of the world's brightest minds. Now, OpenAI says one of its AI models has cracked it — not with step-by-step ...

OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who exposed its last embarrassing claim are backing it up.

This marks one of the clearest examples so far of AI helping to solve a longstanding mathematical problem that had stumped the experts. Written for you by our author Paul Arnold, edited by Gaby Clark, ...

An 80-year-old maths conjecture that has eluded the world’s greatest mathematicians has been cracked by an artificial intelligence model built by OpenAI. The result has stunned experts and is being ...
