It’s a weird time to be studying computer science. Recent grads have a higher unemployment rate than those in just about every other major—yes, even philosophy. The internet is littered with rants ...

When Eric Weber, professor and chair of mathematics at Iowa State University, talks about data science with future math ...

Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...

As our economy, society and daily life become increasingly dependent on data, new college graduates entering the workforce need to have the skills to analyze data effectively and from multiple angles.

A week after OpenAI made headlines with an A.I.-generated proof, a new “declaration” by 16 experts raises concerns that the ...

The math world is losing its mind over the new solution to an Erdős problem. This is what AI found, how we missed it—and why ...

Math achievement has been stagnating for over a decade. What could turn that around? As the “science of reading” makes big strides, one can’t help but ask if there’s an analogous “science of math.” ...

The closest the field has come to solving the planar unit distance problem, first proposed in the 1940s, was in 1984. Now, OpenAI claims an internal model has cracked the puzzle.

MIT engineers have created an ultrasonic device that rapidly frees water from materials designed to absorb moisture from the air. Instead of waiting hours for heat to evaporate the trapped water, the ...

Process mining company Celonis has acquired MIT-linked decision intelligence supplier Ikigai Labs to flesh out its offer to eliminate artificial intelligence (AI) “blind spots” from business IT.

Scientists at MIT and Stanford have unveiled a promising new way to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells more effectively. Their strategy targets a hidden “off switch” that tumors ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in ...
