Artificial intelligence is a game changer across many fields these days and mathematics is no exception. Yet, the rapid ...

Dr. Clayton is a mathematician. Candidates for quantitative jobs — like those on Wall Street or in Silicon Valley — are sometimes asked offbeat questions such as: How many Ping-Pong balls fit in a 747 ...

Toward the end of a math lesson on a sunny Friday in October, fourth-grade teacher D’Atra Howard and math instructional coach LaVeda Gray ducked out of the classroom to huddle. Howard’s students at ...

Researchers at Stanford and Caltech have found some critical reasoning failures in advanced AI models. LLMs are great at recognizing patterns, but they have trouble with basic logic, social reasoning, ...

Let’s keep things simple – this is basic math. Nothing scary. Just everyday calculations, a bit of geometry, some number patterns, and the kind of stuff you definitely learned in school at some point.

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...

Let’s be honest – this quiz is very basic. We’re talking simple additions and subtractions, easy fractions, percentages, shapes, angles, and a bit of number logic. All the questions are type-in. If ...

Krista McCay is a writer specializing in video game guides and walkthroughs. She first entered the industry in 2022 while studying English at UC Santa Barbara and working part-time as an editor. It ...

Over the weekend, Neel Somani, who is a software engineer, former quant researcher, and a startup founder, was testing the math skills of OpenAI’s new model when he made an unexpected discovery. After ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer—has long captured the public imagination. Yet most arguments about it rest ...
