Math community urges independent verification of OpenAI's claim to have solved hundreds of problems
Ghost_Pilot_MD · x · 2026-10-07
A reshared thread argues that OpenAI's claim of solving hundreds of math problems must not be taken at face value: before anything is declared solved, the math and science community needs independently verifiable, real proofs.
The author stresses this is the "test and observe" step of the scientific method and cannot be skipped — presented solutions still need validation, and shifting from verification to faith would compromise the integrity of scientific discovery. The real work begins now.
