In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...

The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians have struggled to solve a classic geometry puzzle first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946: the ...

A chatbot’s result for the 80-year-old “unit distance” conjecture is the first AI proof that would likely be published in ...

Place any number of dots on a two-dimensional plane—say, a piece of paper—and measure the distance between each pair. If you ...

Only a few months ago, the question felt mostly philosophical: if artificial intelligence can help solve open math problems, ...

OpenAI had generated plenty of buzz by coming up with a breakthrough for an 80-year-old Erdős problem, but Anthropic now says that ...

An AI model by OpenAI has solved the 80-year-old planar unit distance problem, showcasing its potential to revolutionize research across mathematics and other scientific fields.
