Anthropic tasked an unreleased Claude version with the Riemann hypothesis. While it didn't solve the famous problem, it unexpectedly improved the longstanding lower bound for the fraction of zeros satisfying the hypothesis from 41.6% to 67.2%. Mathematicians validated the proof, which serves as a demonstration of the rapid progress in AI mathematical capabilities.
