No it can't, and there's no such thing as AI. How is a thing that predicts the next-most-likely word going to do novel math? It can't even do existing math reliably because logical operations and statistical approximation are fundamentally different. It is fun watching grifters put lipstick on this thing and shop it around as a magic pig though.
