A Peking University research team shared their AI-assisted mathematical proof journey. While tackling a complex conjecture, AI retrieved a crucial paper on pathwise-differentiability (Lipshutz & Ramanan). This previously buried literature helped the team compress a brute-force proof framework from 150 pages down to roughly 10 pages, fully demonstrating AI's unique value in academic literature discovery.
