The artificial intelligence (AI) program DeepMind has gotten closer to proving a math conjecture that's bedeviled mathematicians for decades and revealed another new conjecture that may unravel how ...

OpenAI's AI helped overturn a longstanding math conjecture by finding a counterexample, highlighting a powerful new way to tackle difficult problems.

On May 20, 2026, OpenAI announced that its internal AI model had disproven a long-held prediction regarding the 'unit distance problem,' a central unsolved problem in discrete geometry. The unit ...

The two pure math conjectures are the first-ever important advances in pure mathematics (or math not directly linked to any non-math application) generated by artificial intelligence, the researchers ...
