Medium	GrooveSquid.com (original content)	Medium Difficulty Summary The FrontierMath benchmark is an innovative tool for evaluating artificial intelligence (AI) models’ ability to solve complex mathematics problems. Developed by expert mathematicians, the benchmark consists of hundreds of challenging questions covering various branches of modern mathematics. Unlike existing benchmarks, FrontierMath uses new, unpublished problems and automated verification to assess AI models’ performance while minimizing data contamination risks. Current state-of-the-art AI models can only solve around 2% of these problems, highlighting a significant gap between AI capabilities and the mathematical prowess of human experts. As AI systems continue to advance, FrontierMath offers a rigorous testbed to quantify their progress.
Low	GrooveSquid.com (original content)	Low Difficulty Summary AI researchers have created a new benchmark for testing math problem-solving skills. It has hundreds of hard math questions that cover many areas of math, like number theory and algebraic geometry. To make sure the AI models are accurate, the benchmark uses new, unknown problems and checks them automatically to prevent mistakes. Right now, even the best AI can only solve about 2% of these problems, which shows how much better humans are at math. As AI gets better, this benchmark will help measure their progress.
