Claude Tackles Riemann Hypothesis, Raising Lower Bound of Zeros to 67.2%
QuintinPope5 · x · 2026-08-11
Anthropic tasked an unreleased research version of Claude with the Riemann hypothesis. While it didn't solve the problem, it made strides on a related issue by increasing the lower bound for the fraction of zeros satisfying the hypothesis from 41.6% to 67.2%. Meanwhile, a user jokingly claimed they achieved progress by spamming "believe in yourself" to the model.
