The existing AI models primarily rely on statistical predictions for the next word and have faced challenges when dealing with abstract mathematics, which demands advanced reasoning capabilities akin to human intelligence.


DeepMind, Google's AI division, has revealed promising outcomes with its latest AI models, named AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2, successfully solving four out of six questions at the 2024 International Math Olympiad, a prestigious competition for high school students.


According to a blog post by Google, while one question was resolved within minutes, others required up to three days, surpassing the competition's time constraints. Nevertheless, these results mark the most impressive performance by an AI system in the competition thus far.


AlphaProof, a reasoning-focused system, was developed by amalgamating a version of Gemini, the language model powering Google's chatbot of the same name, with AlphaZero, an AI system renowned for defeating humans in strategic board games like chess and Go.


AlphaProof managed to solve three of the competition's challenges, including the most arduous question, a feat accomplished by only five of over 600 human participants. Additionally, AlphaGeometry 2 successfully tackled an extra math problem.


Earlier in July, Reuters reported that OpenAI, backed by Microsoft, was working on reasoning technology under the project name "Strawberry," previously known as Q*. The breakthrough was deemed so significant that several researchers at OpenAI expressed concerns to the board of directors in November about its potential risks to humanity.
