OpenAI released hundreds of new math results, including a groundbreaking matrix multiplication algorithm pushing the exponent bound down to ω≤2.25 — beating the previous best bound, which belonged to the team of Abbas Mehrabian, who contextualizes the history of ω and why it matters for computational complexity.
If verified, this would mark a notable instance of AI systems producing original mathematical progress beyond long-standing human records.
