PSI says its internal system, on a non-public Anthropic model, proved the 2008 Aaronson-Ambainis conjecture

Physical Superintelligence (PSI) announced that an internally developed research system, running a non-public Anthropic model, found a proof of the Aaronson–Ambainis conjecture, an open problem since 2008.
The conjecture concerns when quantum computers can be exponentially faster than classical ones, and is considered one of the most fundamental questions in quantum complexity theory.
Settling it has major implications for quantum computing speedup — another landmark case of AI contributing a significant mathematical research result, this time from a non-major-lab internal system.
