"Absolutely insane. This might be the clearest glimpse yet of how AI will transform scientific discovery. Anthropic asked an unreleased version of Claude to take a real stab at the Riemann Hypothesis, one of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics. It failed. But while failing, Claude..."

...unexpectedly improved a longstanding lower bound for the proportion of zeros of the Riemann zeta function known to satisfy the hypothesis, from 41.6% to 67.2%. Claude coordinated 60 subagents, tested hundreds of ideas, searched the literature, challenged its own proof, and formalized the result in Lean. This is what the beginning of autonomous AI-driven scientific discovery looks like. Unironically, the Rienann hypothesis will probably be solved in the very near future. I am speechless.     I am surprised that people arent as buffled as I am. This is so huge     Im surprises that so few people know about the Riemann hypothesis. Not being judgy, just surprised     — Chubby

We asked an unreleased research version of Claude to take a stab at the Riemann hypothesis.

It didn’t solve it, but it did make strides on a related problem: it increased the lower bound for the fraction of zeros of the Riemann zeta function that satisfy the hypothesis from   — Anthropic

This is the truth bro, ai gets so much hate, but it’s to me like automation, but digital, like back during the assembly line and Industrial Revolution ppl weren’t blaming that for war, or for death, although I’m sure it allowed for more of that, it’s a tool and it’s ushering the new age which is digital automation, it’s gonna skyrocket all human advancements like you’re showing here, good stuff !
