3SUM problem solved faster than O(N²) with AI assistance

Researchers have developed a new algorithm that solves the 3SUM problem in O(N¹·⁹⁹⁹²) time, a significant improvement over the previously assumed lower bound of O(N²). This breakthrough also resolves the All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem, which has practical applications in computational geometry. Notably, the researchers claim that Anthropic's Claude model played a role in discovering and refining the initial algorithm. AI

IMPACT This breakthrough in algorithmic complexity, aided by AI, could accelerate research in computational geometry and related fields.
