Mathematicians excel at handling complexity and uncertainty. Mathematical reasoning strategies aren't just useful for dilemmas involving numbers. We can apply math mindsets to improve our approach to ...

Artificial intelligence systems may be good at generating text, recognizing images, and even solving basic math problems—but when it comes to advanced mathematical reasoning, they are hitting a wall.

Google’s DeepMind says its AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 AI models are breaking new ground in mathematical reasoning — an Achilles’ heel of AI chatbots. Google DeepMind says its artificial ...

A National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine-appointed ad hoc committee will plan and organize a workshop that will bring together academic, industry, and government stakeholders to ...

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, ...

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 ...

A team of Apple researchers has released a paper scrutinising the mathematical reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), suggesting that while these models can exhibit abstract reasoning ...
