AI agents form company to solve Fermat's Last Theorem

A group of AI agents, reportedly powered by Anthropic's Claude model, self-organized into a company to tackle Fermat's Last Theorem. Within 30 hours, these agents formalized a 129-page proof, raising new questions about AI capabilities and collaboration. This experiment highlights the potential for AI systems to autonomously form structures and achieve complex problem-solving goals. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates AI's emergent ability to self-organize and tackle complex problems, potentially accelerating research and discovery.
