Could an AI 'Math Genius' Co-Author Mathematical Proofs Within Three Years? A new initiative from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), called expMath, aims to accelerate breakthroughs in pure mathematics by developing AI models capable of co-authoring sophisticated mathematical proofs. Announced during a Proposers Day event, the program seeks to build AI systems that can decompose natural language problems into reusable lemmas, translate these into formal proofs, and then back into readable language. Although DARPA acknowledges current AI struggles with high-level math, optimism remains high, with experts like Fountain Adobe CEO Robin Rowe suggesting progress could outpace the program's three-year timeline. By bringing together AI developers and mathematicians, DARPA hopes to fundamentally reshape the future of mathematical research.
