In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...
OpenAI claims its reasoning model disproved a geometry conjecture unsolved since 1946 — and this time, the mathematicians who exposed its last embarrassing claim are backing it up.
OpenAI’s claim that GPT-5 had solved ten of Paul Erdős’s famous “unsolved” math problems has drawn sharp backlash from across the AI industry, after experts revealed the model merely rediscovered ...
