Shared content claims that GPT-5.6 has solved another math problem dating back 50+ years: Erdős #793 (regarding the asymptotic properties of 2-primitive sets).
The quote further explains that the model provided a very short and elegant construction that extends and enhances Erdős's original proof of a weaker result. The poster emphasizes that this isn't just "getting the right answer," but rather the model delivering a highly readable mathematical construction.
