Over the past couple of months, several researchers have begun making the same provocative claim: They used generative-AI tools to solve a previously unanswered math problem. The most extreme promises ...

Researchers at the University of Tuebingen, working with an international team, have developed an artificial intelligence that designs entirely new, sometimes unusual, experiments in quantum physics ...

Blizzards are a real-life example of what game theorists call the “snowdrift problem,” a cousin of the prisoner’s dilemma ...

AI could soon spew out hundreds of mathematical proofs that look "right" but contain hidden flaws, or proofs so complex we ...

Another day, another Google AI model. Google has really been pumping out new AI tools lately, having just released Gemini 3 in November. Today, it’s bumping the flagship model to version 3.1. The new ...

By explicitly modeling each step of a problem and gradually fading away supports, teachers can give students a clear path to mastering new content.

One would imagine that an AI capable of solving the hardest Olympiad problems would naturally produce novel scientific ...

Probability underpins AI, cryptography and statistics. However, as the philosopher Bertrand Russell said, “Probability is the ...

Name, image and likeness (NIL) deals have flooded college sports with hundreds of millions of dollars — but universities and team general managers have been operating with little formal oversight, ...

Autonomous vehicles have made remarkable progress over the past decade, accumulating millions of miles and performing well on highways, in controlled test areas, and in select urban zones. However, ...

OpenAI’s unreleased model solved five of 10 unpublished research-level math problems and proposed a breakthrough physics formula, signaling a new era for AI in science.

It’s a breakthrough in the field of random walks.
