Anthropic AI Model Achieves Breakthrough in Solving a Problem That Has Plagued Mathematicians for Over 150 Years

Technology 08/12/2026, 13:54
🤖 **AI Revolution in Mathematics**: Anthropic's neural network has achieved a breakthrough in solving a problem that humanity has been unable to solve for over 150 years. 🧠 **How it happened**: — An employee without a mathematical background gave the command to the model. — The AI worked for 1.5 days, testing 650 ideas. — 60 sub-agents were involved in the process. ✅ **Result**: Two mathematicians confirmed the correctness of the conclusions, and the proofs were formalized in the Lean system. 📉 **Context**: This is a continuation of a series of AI successes in 2026 (Erdős problems, Astra model, Jacobi hypothesis). ⚖️ **Debates**: Mathematicians are discussing whether AI undermines the value of authorship, but Fields Medalist Timothy Gowers sees the future of science in this. #AI #Math #Anthropic #Science #Technology
