Artificial intelligence has attained an impressive series of feats—solving problems from the International Math Olympiad, ...
Solving arithmetic problems, even simple subtractions, involves mental representations whose influence remains to be clarified. Visualizing these representations would enable us to better understand ...
But, both of these would require large structural changes for a course that teaches hundreds of students a year — something that can’t really happen in the near term. What could happen now, though, is ...
For all of the recent strides we’ve made in the math world—like a supercomputer finally solving the Sum of Three Cubes problem that puzzled mathematicians for 65 years—we’re forever crunching ...
