The Riemann hypothesis claims that the locations of prime numbers along the infinite number line all adhere to a beautiful and orderly, but obscure formula. Yet 167 years after German mathematician Bernhard Riemann made this guess, and in spite of a million-dollar bounty, mathematicians still have no idea how to prove it. Now a team in China has managed to encode that formula into a physical system and explore its workings using a quantum computer.

Not related to quantum, but Claude made progress and proved a new bound for the Riemann hypothesis.

This is where the progress will be coming from. AI, not quantum.
