DeepMind, the Google AI R&D lab, believes that the key to more capable AI systems might lie in uncovering new ways to solve challenging geometry problems. To that end, DeepMind today unveiled ...

Google updated its search engine and Lens tool with new features to help you visualize and solve problems in more difficult subjects like geometry, physics, trigonometry and calculus. The update ...

A year ago, AlphaGeometry, an AI problem solver created by Google DeepMind, surprised the world by performing at the level of silver medallists in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), a ...

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, ...

There’s nothing quite like a maddening math problem, mind-bending optical illusion, or twisty logic puzzle to halt all productivity in the Popular Mechanics office. We’re curious people by nature, but ...

A year ago AlphaGeometry, an artificial-intelligence (AI) problem solver created by Google DeepMind, surprised the world by performing at the level of silver medallists in the International ...

The Pythagorean theorem, a cornerstone of mathematics for millennia, provides a method for determining unknown sides in right-angled triangles using the formula a² + b² = c². Its applications extend ...

Mathematicians have finally solved a geometry problem that has puzzled the field for decades. By wiggling a needle around while spinning it, you can minimize the amount of space it moves through, ...

Mathematicians are “reinventing the wheel” by giving it a new shape. Their newly imagined wheel looks like a many-dimensional guitar pick, and it could theoretically roll in ways beyond our ...

Mathematicians have resolved the first one trillion cases of an ancient mathematics problem. The advance was made possible by a clever new computational technique for multiplying large numbers. The ...

Author Ed Southall of Solve My Maths shared a math problem on Twitter asking people to figure out what fraction of a square is shaded pink. Twitter users struggled to figure it out, but some got it ...
