Google LLC’s DeepMind artificial intelligence research unit claims to have cracked an unsolvable math problem using a large language model-based chatbot equipped with a fact-checker to filter out ...
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have made artificial intelligence more adaptable than ever before, but that comes with a drawback: lies. Generative AI tends to make things up, but ...
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 ...
The three-body problem is a centuries-old physics question that puzzled Isaac Newton. It describes the orbits of three bodies, like planets or stars, trapped in each other's gravity. The problem is ...
Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered ...
This is an updated version of a story first published on May 5, 2024. For many high school students returning to class, it may seem like geometry and trigonometry were created by the Greeks as a form ...
