An 80-year-old unsolved math problem. An AI solved it last week. Alone. In 1946, mathematician Paul Erdős posed a problem about points and distances. Simple to describe. Impossible to prove. The best minds in the world tried for eight decades. Nobody cracked it. Then OpenAI handed it to a general AI model, not a specialised math AI and walked away. It came back with a 125-page proof using ideas from a completely different branch of mathematics, nobody thought was even related. They sent it to the world's top mathematicians, including a Fields Medal winner, the Nobel Prize of math. Every step verified. The AI was right. First time in history an AI solved a major open problem completely on its own. Not assisted. Solved. For decades, we assumed AI could only repeat what humans knew. Last week, that assumption ended.
