Google said in a blog post that one question was solved within minutes, but others took up to three days, longer than the competition's time limit. Still, the results represent the best marks in the competition by an AI system to date.
The company said it created AlphaProof, a system focused on reasoning, by combining a version of Gemini, the language model behind its chatbot of the same name, with AlphaZero, another AI system which previously bested humans in board games such as chess and Go. AlphaProof solved three of the competition's problems, including the most difficult question, which was solved by just five out of more than 600
