AI math proof verification reached a new frontier as DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős research problems with Lean-verified proofs, some unsolved for 56 years. The May 2026 Science Ne ...

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.

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) ...

After an AI from OpenAI found a trick to solve an 80-year-old conjecture from Paul Erdős, mathematicians have borrowed the ...

Then it’s kind of a mystery to try to figure out why and how they’re related.” The Riemann hypothesis has proved to be a font ...

Detroit police, Michigan State Police, the FBI and more than a dozen other agencies are now working together on what they're calling "Operation Block," a citywide effort to search for missing people.

Researchers say the findings raise questions about what happens to our brains and patterns if we depend too much on AI. Dashia is the consumer insights editor for CNET. She specializes in data-driven ...

Liam Price just cracked a 60-year-old problem that world-class mathematicians have tried and failed to solve. He’s 23 years old and has no advanced mathematics training. What he does have is a ChatGPT ...

The $29.3 billion AI coding tool just got caught with its provenance showing. When Cursor launched Composer 2 last week — calling it "frontier-level coding intelligence" — it presented the model as ...

After 30 months of fast-paced innovation in quantum algorithms, six research groups are hoping to hit paydirt. But there can be only one big winner—if there is a winner at all. I’m standing in front ...

The latest trends in software development from the Computer Weekly Application Developer Network. Pathway is a post-transformer AI lab that claims to be delivering a faster path to AGI through true ...
