In 1946, the mathematician Paul Erdős posed the unit distance problem—and suggested a winning strategy. An A.I. model has now ...

A week after OpenAI made headlines with an A.I.-generated proof, a new “declaration” by 16 experts raises concerns that the ...

Every organism you have ever seen, every ecosystem you have ever walked through, is the ongoing output of an algorithm that ...

Yet an AI detector that is mostly reliable might in some ways be more dangerous than a broken one. While Pangram is accumulating the power to end reputations and careers, the tool does make mistakes, ...

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.

Artificial intelligence (AI) was not a formal or informal part of my graduate school training, yet AI is increasingly ...

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

While Meta is conducting another brutal round of layoffs, cutting highly experienced, specialised AI talent to “flatten" its org chart, Elon Musk is working on another trajectory. He recently tweeted ...

If you've been using AI tools for chemistry lab reports or physics problem sets in 2026, you're likely already experiencing a major shift: these tools are no longer just chatbots you copy-paste from.

Abstract: With the transformation of manufacturing towards intelligence and flexibility, the workshop scheduling problem, as a typical combinatorial optimization problem, is facing increasingly ...

Some readers may solve the problem procedurally: line up the two numbers, add the ones column, carry the one, and add the tens to get 43. Others might instead notice a creative shortcut: 29 + 14 is ...
