Indeed, but that is not just a press release; it is a peer-reviewed paper in Nature.
Also, in this context I believe DeepMInd is somewhat separate from Google. While they are indeed owned by Google (and their technology is used in Google products) I am not aware of any DeepMind results/paper being retracted. Results published under the DeepMind name seems to have a` good track record.

Did they test negatives? What happens when you give it a problem that cannot be proven? Or that can only be verified by numerical evaluation?

Swell. A tool that can answer geometry questions incorrectly. Just what we need.

It's just that it will certainly come up with a lot of false proofs, it would be nice to have an AI say, "I cannot solve it".

From my understanding, the concept of true AGI is still a bit philosophical when we are still scratching the surface of understanding how the human mind works. There will no doubt be continued miraculous developments in AI, but AGI right now is still just a buzzword.

Let's discuss this when there will be an AI capable enough to solve 'neighbour problems' without utilizing shotguns.
Math is easy :wink:

We've solved that in the UK. The solution is gun laws.
