🤖 AI Just Disproved an 87-Year-Old Math Problem — And That's Just the Start

Anthropic's Claude has cracked a mathematical conjecture that stumped researchers since the 1930s, raising urgent questions about AI's role in science and academia. Meanwhile, a $1.5 billion copyright settlement marks a historic moment in AI litigation — but Sony Music just fired the next shot, targeting an AI music generator with a list of over 30,000 songs from artists like Elvis and Beyoncé.
