dajmeyer reposted the paper attributed to OpenAI, summarizing its claimed results: the Kakeya Conjecture is true in all dimensions, the Exponential Time Hypothesis is false, and QCD and the Standard Model exist in 4 dimensions.

Any one of these would be a landmark result; all appearing in one paper circulating on X underscores how implausible it is — most likely a prank artifact.
