OpenAI says an internal next-gen model found 10 new results on open math problems

A retweet claims OpenAI's next model, codenamed Astra, is already unusually strong in both depth and breadth.
The post cites OpenAI's own claim that an internal version of the next major model produced 10 new results on long-standing open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science.
It also emphasizes that this was done using roughly $2,000 worth of tokens at GPT-5.6 Sol API rates, implying the capability is emerging before the company has fully used the compute it has planned for next year and beyond.
The poster frames this as evidence that future OpenAI models could be substantially more capable.
