An unreleased version of Anthropic's Claude AI has reportedly made progress on the Riemann Hypothesis, a notoriously difficult mathematical problem. After numerous attempts and specific prompting from a researcher, the AI successfully advanced a key theorem's proof from 41.6% to 67.2%. This achievement suggests that targeted encouragement can potentially unlock advanced reasoning capabilities in AI systems. AI
