DeepMind breaks 50-year math record using AI; new record falls a week later AlphaTensor discovers better algorithms for matrix math, inspiring another improvement from afar.

Even for computers, the long multiplication algorithm, defined as n to the power of, could reportedly take months if each number had a billion digits.

Oct 06, 2022 11:20:00 The strongest shogi AI reaches new ground, DeepMind's AI 'AlphaTensor' succeeds in improving the matrix multiplication algorithm that has been stagnant for over 50 years ...

AI engineers develop an algorithm that will replace floating-point multiplication with integer addition to make AI processing more efficient.
