AI systems advancing long reasoning chains
By
–
This result points to something larger: AI systems are becoming capable of holding together long, difficult chains of reasoning, connecting ideas across distant fields, and surfacing paths researchers may not have explored. We believe those same abilities will soon accelerate

General-purpose AI model achieves math reasoning milestone
By
–
The proof came from a general-purpose reasoning model, not a system built specifically to solve math problems or this problem in particular, and represents an important milestone for the math and AI communities.
