Per Science, OpenAI on Oct 6 published 700+ math papers generated with an advanced version of its model, appearing to topple hundreds of long-standing problems and forcing researchers to accept that no problem in math is off-limits to machines.
Fields Medalist James Maynard of Oxford had heard rumors all through dinner; among the flood he spotted a paper claiming progress on the Riemann hypothesis, one of the seven Millennium Prize Problems.
