Last month many mathematicians were shocked by OpenAI’s announcement that artificial intelligence had solved geometry’s famous “unit distance” problem. For some, the achievement was exciting. But ...

“If you are a mathematician,” one of the world’s leading mathematicians recently wrote, “you may want to make sure you are sitting down before reading further.” And you’ll definitely need to sit down ...

OpenAI claims its new reasoning model has produced an original mathematical proof disproving a famous unsolved conjecture in geometry, which was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946. If this sounds ...

Scientists have uncovered a hidden mathematical secret inside the leaves of the Chinese money plant: a naturally occurring geometric pattern known as a Voronoi diagram, something typically associated ...

For Jessica Wynne, there’s a unique beauty in the way mathematicians express themselves on a chalkboard (or blackboard, as it’s also known). It represents a very different experience from using a ...

ELGIN, Ill. (WLS) -- Some suburban students got a quarterback surprise after their teacher used Chicago Bears stats to help tackle math. Her creative approach scored big with Bears quarterback Caleb ...

Nothing rivals the human brain's complexity. Its 86 billion neurons and 85 billion other cells make an estimated 100 trillion connections. If the brain were a computer, it would perform an exaflop (a ...
