- Mathematicians grapple with a ‘very rapid and very unsettling change’ as AI cracks yet another century-old problem
An AI model solved the century-old Jacobian conjecture, part of a series of AI-driven mathematical breakthroughs since mid-2025. Mathematicians expressed mixed reactions as AI rapidly resolves long-standing problems, prompting discussions on ethical guidelines through the Leiden Declaration.
- Mathematicians warn of AI threats to profession as industry encroaches
Mathematicians issued the Leiden Declaration on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics, endorsed by the International Mathematical Union, to address AI's impact on their field. The declaration follows an OpenAI AI model disproving an 80-year-old geometry conjecture, highlighting tech industry influence.
