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

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

Author: AI Daily July 21, 2026 Duration: 7:04
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. On the geopolitical front, China is flexing hard with two jaw-dropping model releases that are rattling American AI circles, while the US government's top AI policy seat sits empty after yet another resignation. The US Army is running out of AI tokens, the UK doesn't have enough water to power its planned data centers, and the infrastructure reality check is hitting fast. And in the jobs market, AI is cutting newsroom roles while simultaneously showing signs of bias in hiring — a troubling double bind with real consequences for workers worldwide.
