You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an everyday problem, such as calculating a tip at a restaurant or determining the square footage of a room. But what role does math play ...

AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 are steps toward building systems that can reason, which could unlock exciting new capabilities. AI models can easily generate essays and other types of text. However, ...

Alan Veliz-Cuba has received funding from the Simons Foundation and the American Mathematical Society for some of his research. You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an ...

24-year-old founder and CEO Carina Hong created Axiom Math in March 2025 and has recruited a team of ten employees, most of whom are from Meta, to build a math-focused AI model. Last fall, Carina Hong ...

At the 2024 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), one competitor did so well that it would have been awarded the Silver Prize, except for one thing: it was an AI system. This was the first time ...

Researchers have developed an artificially intelligent system that does the exact opposite of living in the moment. But it doesn’t just think a few steps ahead—it thinks millions of steps ahead. A ...

Artificial intelligence can write a résumé, answer medical questions, and even have philosophical conversations. But one task it’s not always so good at is solving math problems—and that poses a ...

Polynomial equations are a cornerstone of modern science, providing a mathematical basis for celestial mechanics, computer graphics, market growth predictions and much more. But although most high ...

We've wondered for centuries whether knowledge is latent and innate or learned and grasped through experience, and a new research project is asking the same question about AI. When you purchase ...

As a mathematics education researcher, I study how math instruction impacts students' learning, from following standard math procedures to understanding mathematical concepts. Focusing on the latter, ...
