In Part 1 of this series on optimization and recovery, we considered two limitations of optimization processes and the light they shed on pseudo-recovery. Let’s now think more about what the ...

A century ago, the great mathematician David Hilbert posed a probing question in pure mathematics. A recent advance in optimization theory is bringing Hilbert’s work into a world of self-driving cars.

Google DeepMind researchers recently developed a technique to improve math ability in AI language models like ChatGPT by using other AI models to improve prompting—the written instructions that tell ...
