Of course, these days your multiplication probably occurs in hardware but it still may not be as fast as addition and subtraction.

Through learning, AlphaTensor gradually improves over time, re-discovering historical fast matrix multiplication algorithms such as Strassen’s, eventually surpassing the realm of human intuition and ...

High-performance matrix multiplication remains a cornerstone of numerical computing, underpinning a wide array of applications from scientific simulations to machine learning. Researchers ...

Even for computers, the long multiplication algorithm, defined as n to the power of, could reportedly take months if each number had a billion digits.

Even the "old" asymptotically fast matrix multiplication algorithms don't yield any practical benefit over more naive methods until the number of rows of the matrix exceeds the number of atoms in ...

DeepMind breaks 50-year math record using AI; new record falls a week later AlphaTensor discovers better algorithms for matrix math, inspiring another improvement from afar.
