A Reddit post relays DoubleAI's claim that its AI agent authored a breakthrough in extremal graph theory: explicitly constructed regular graphs with girth (8/5) log n, reportedly the first improvement in 38 years and a step toward the theoretical maximum. A paper PDF is linked. Unverified by the math community so far — if confirmed, a landmark for AI for math.
