DeepMind's AlphaProof + AlphaGeometry 2 reached silver-medal level at IMO 2024 and approached gold by 2025 in geometry and number theory.
AI systems have made significant progress in solving mathematical problems, including some areas covered by the International Math Olympiad. However, their ability to solve novel problems in all categories is still limited, and they often rely on pre-programmed knowledge and algorithms to tackle specific types of problems. In certain categories, such as geometry and combinatorics, AI systems have shown promising results, but their performance can be inconsistent and may not match that of human mathematicians. The development of more advanced AI systems that can generalize and reason like humans is an active area of research.
