GPT 6 Pro ranked 3 years of math discoveries, 81% allegedly released today; mathematician pushes back
littmath · x · 2026-10-07
OpenAI's willdepue says GPT 6 Pro and Fable 5.1 categorized all math discoveries from the past three years — blue for human-found, red for AI-found before October 6th, green for AI-found via the OpenAI/math repo — claiming 81% were released today. Mathematician Daniel Litt (littmath) responded that the list differs sharply from a mathematician's view and disputed one classification. Unverified, but signals OpenAI's aggressive narrative on automated mathematical discovery.
