ChatGPT's breakthrough is not what it seems.

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary ...

A breakthrough from an OpenAI model would have meant nothing without humans to make sense of it.

The result is correct but challenges core norms of mathematics: checking proofs, crediting ideas and keeping research open to everyone.

I have a confession that probably won't surprise anyone who knows me well: I love reading books about mathematicians. Not because I understand the dense mathematics. I struggled through four semesters ...
