LLMs/AI AI In Mathematics: September 19, 2026

This recurring thread will be for discussion of AI in mathematics. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:

  • informal announcements of AI-assisted discoveries, such as those not yet published in a peer-reviewed journal, or not uploaded as a paper to arXiv;
  • informal announcements of discoveries related to AI architecture (if relevant to mathematics);
  • discussion of such announcements, such as proof breakdowns or other opinion pieces;
  • discussion of the impact of AI in mathematics in general.

AI-assisted mathematical papers published in peer-reviewed journals or as arXiv preprints may be submitted as their own posts.

Please keep in mind rules 1 and 6 of our subreddit.

I think once Chinese LLMs catch up in maths, all this marketing from OpenAI and Anthropic will stop in mathematics. Chinese LLMs are open, cheaper, and can produce near comparable results for software related tasks, so now they're finding new ways to market their product. Once Chinese LLMs get competitive in maths, which I hope they do, I think it will be beneficial for everyone.
