mobav0 · x · 2026-08-29
An OpenAI staff member revealed that an internal version of Astra, the next model family, has solved 10 major open problems in mathematics, quantum complexity, and theoretical computer science. The team believes this will be a major step for scientific reasoning.
Announcement Strategy:
- OpenAI only announces math results from internal models when they meaningfully change people's understanding of AI progress.
- The current focus is shipping great models for everyone to make their own discoveries.
