- Unverified report from @felpix: OpenAI began a new training round on August 28, started using the model on NS four days later, and it solved NS four days after that.
- Training was ongoing as of Sept 8; in about a week and a half OpenAI trained a new model reportedly 4x better than astra at math.
- The account also cites OpenAI's claim that the model solved "more than 100 long-standing open problems" in math within two weeks of the NS announcement.
