AI Agent Solves Open Math Conjectures, Validating Research Capabilities
ninamiolane · x · 2026-08-08
EkdeepL shared an exciting research thread led by Silico, an AI research agent platform. In this study, Silico successfully solved 2 open cases of the approximate counting colorings conjecture.
@franperni, who led the project, described the AI's proof style as an “experimental scientist at heart doing math,” noting that each of the solved cases would make a nice paper at a top theoretical computer science conference.
