OpenAI的模型在离散几何领域取得重大突破,自主解决了由数学家Paul Erdős于1946年首次提出的平面单位距离猜想。该突破是AI首次独立解决一个学科的核心著名开放问题。此前近80年间,数学家普遍认为该问题的最优解大致呈现为方形网格结构,而OpenAI模型发现了全新的、性能更优的构造方式,颠覆了这一长期信念。
An OpenAI model has achieved a major breakthrough in mathematics, by disproving a central conjecture in discrete geometry that was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.
This is the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.
