Beyond Calculation: What Makes Math Problems Intriguing?

November 12, 2025 by BBG News

Human engagement with mathematics extends beyond problem-solving to encompass the discernment of worthwhile pursuits, a cognitive process largely absent in current large language models tasked solely with direct solutions; this work elucidates the divergence by comparing human and model evaluations of problem significance, both in final assessments and the underlying factors informing those judgments.

New research explores how well artificial intelligence can discern the qualities that make a mathematical problem genuinely interesting, comparing its judgment to that of human mathematicians.
