These days, large language models can handle increasingly complex tasks, writing complex code and engaging in sophisticated reasoning. But when it comes to four-digit multiplication, a task taught in ...

New lower values for p get discovered all the time (maybe once a year). It is conjectured that they will approach 2.0 without ever getting quite to it. Somehow Quanta Mag heard about the new result ...

Mathematicians love a good puzzle. Even something as abstract as multiplying matrices (two-dimensional tables of numbers) can feel like a game when you try to find the most efficient way to do it.

AI training time is at a point in an exponential where more throughput isn't going to advance functionality much at all. The underlying problem, problem solving by training, is computationally ...
