📌 OpenAI 發布 722 篇數學手稿,宣稱解決 500 大難題中的 90 個

TL;DR:OpenAI 公開內部未發布模型產出的大量數學結果,引發「百年來最重大時刻」的讚譽,但驗證爭議同樣激烈。

一個從未對外發布的模型,用平均三小時的 ChatGPT Pro 推理運算,產出了足以讓數學家形容為「兩百年來數論最大成果」的東西。這聽起來誇張,但如果素材描述屬實,這確實是這個領域罕見的時刻,也正因為聲稱太大,驗證爭議同樣沒有停過。

🤔 一次釋出 722 篇手稿,來源是一個不會公開的模型

OpenAI 在一個公開 GitHub repo 中,發布了其內部前沿模型產出的一大批數學結果,連同部落格文章與推文一起公佈。報導指出,OpenAI 曾就這批結果的發布方式,諮詢過 Institute for Advanced Study 的獨立 Advisory Group on Mathematics and AI。這批收藏據稱包含 722 篇手稿,歸納成 372 組相關結果家族,來自對約 4,000 個研究問題的評估,平均每個結果使用大約三小時的 ChatGPT Pro 思考運算。發布內容包含論文、證明相關的 artifact 與部分推理摘要,但模型本身並未公開。Sam Altman 將此稱為「發現的新時代」。

📊 被點名的結果:整數乘法、彈性反問題,以及「Quasi-Riemann」

根據個別評論者的指認(未經獨立驗證),幾個被特別提及的結果包括:

  • 一個比 n log n 更快的整數乘法結果。
  • 彈性反問題(elastic inverse problem)的唯一性結果,報導稱該問題自 1994 年起在三維空間中懸而未解。
  • 被形容為與千禧年難題相關的部分進展,涉及 Riemann、Hodge 與 BSD。
  • Result 003,即 Quasi-Riemann Hypothesis,被形容介於 Fields Medal 等級的成果與「兩百年來數論最大結果」之間。

一項分析估計,這批結果中約有 20% 是反證或反例,論點認為這削弱了「AI 數學勝利主要靠暴力搜尋」的說法。

💡 讚譽與懷疑同時出現

Anthropic 一方的評論者(儘管他本人與 OpenAI 有過個人心結)毫不含糊地表示,這「顯然是數學史上最重大的時刻」。數學家 Levent Alpöge 稱讚 quasi-Riemann 與 no-Siegel-zeros 結果,稱其為「數學史上最重大的時刻」,同時也指出其他實驗室使用者牽涉其中的疑似搶發與利益衝突問題。

但懷疑聲音同樣清晰。Will Depue 預期部分結果經不起嚴格檢驗,並建了 citedbyagi.com 追蹤這批發布引用了哪些人類論文。Teortaxes 指出三小時運算「算不上多」,質疑外界把算力規模當作論證基礎的框架方式。François Chollet 則提出更根本的問題:這種在 RLVR(可驗證強化學習)友善的數學與程式碼領域取得的進展,能否泛化,還是非可驗證領域仍會被人類資料量瓶頸住。

對照之下,素材也提到同期的 Navier-Stokes 結果動用了 88 小時與 10,000 個 agent,而這批數學成果據稱平均只用三小時的 ChatGPT Pro,算力投入的量級差異本身也是討論焦點之一。

⚠️ 模型不公開,結果也尚未獨立驗證

目前最大的限制在於:產出這批結果的模型本身並未發布,外界無法直接檢驗其推理過程;個別結果的正確性也仍待數學社群逐一覆核,報導中列出的多項評論都明確標註為「未經獨立驗證」。

🎯 對工程師與研究者的意義

在看到「解決 500 大難題中 90 個」這類標題時,值得先分清楚三件事:哪些結果已有共識、哪些仍是個別評論者的一手觀察、以及模型本身是否可被檢驗。對從事 RLVR 或數學推理相關工作的工程師而言,比起結果數字本身,Chollet 提出的泛化性問題或許更值得長期關注:可驗證領域的進步,是否真的能外溢到那些沒有明確驗證訊號的任務上。

摘要原文

Tickets for AIE NYC are selling out soon! See you next week! see past AINews issues for subscriber discounts. Pour one out for Mistral, who shipped a decent Large 4 “Le Chonk” model on the new 3800 GB300 cluster funded by their recent Series D . But they were overshadowed by more mathematics results from OpenAI’s internal Navier-Stokes math model - published as a blogpost , repo , and tweet . The best compliment comes from their Navier-Stokes competitor from Anthropic, who despite his personal issues with OpenAI, does not mince words: “It’s obviously the most significant moment in mathematical history.” This bears some qualification , but most experts seem to agree that it solves many of the top 500 open problems in math . In particular, Result 003, the Quasi-Riemann Hypothesis , is somewhere between a Fields Medal result and “the biggest result in number theory in 200 years ”. The most astonishing is the how - while Navier-Stokes was done in 88 hours and 10,000 agents , these solutions were 3 hours of ChatGPT Pro on average . AI News for 10/5/2026-10/6/2026. We checked 12 subreddits, 544 Twitters and no further Discords. AINews’ website lets you search all past issues. As a reminder, AINews is now a section of Latent Space . You can opt in/out of email frequencies! OpenAI Releases 722 Math Manuscripts From an Unreleased Internal Model The release : OpenAI published a broad set of mathematical results from an internal frontier model in a public GitHub repo . It says it consulted the Institute for Advanced Study’s independent Advisory Group on Mathematics and AI on how to release them. Scale and compute : The collection reportedly holds 722 manuscripts grouped into 372 families of related results. They came from an evaluation of about 4,000 research problems and used an average of roughly three hours of ChatGPT Pro thinking compute per result ( summary , Rundown ). Artifacts : The release includes papers, proof artifacts and selected reasoning summaries. The model itself remains unreleased. Framing : Sam Altman called it “a new era of discovery” . Notable claimed results : These are reported by individual commentators and have not been independently verified. Integer multiplication : One contributor highlighted a result for integer multiplication faster than n log n . Elastic inverse problem : Another singled out a uniqueness result for the elastic inverse problem , which the paper says had been open in 3D since 1994. Millennium-adjacent work : Commenters point to partial progress on Riemann, Hodge and BSD . Mathematician reaction : Levent Alpöge praised the quasi-Riemann and no-Siegel-zeros results and called it “the most significant moment in mathematical history” . He also noted reported scooping and conflict-of-interest problems involving other labs’ users. Composition of results : An analysis estimates about 20% of the results are disproofs or counterexamples . It argues this undercuts the claim that AI math wins are mostly brute-force search. Skepticism and open questions : Errors expected : Will Depue expects that some results should not survive scrutiny . He built citedbyagi.com to track which human papers the release cites. Compute framing : Teortaxes notes that three hours of compute “is not much” . Generalization : François Chollet asks whether gains in RLVR-friendly math and code generalize, or whether non-verifiable domains stay bottlenecked on human data . Mistral Large 4 (”Le Chonk”): Launch, Pricing and Contested Evals Mistral Large 4 preview : The model has 1T total parameters and 49B active, is natively multimodal and is available via API now ( announcement ). Open weights are promised for end of October. Training status : The RL run is “still in flight and shows no sign of saturation” . Compute : The model was pre- and post-trained on ~3,800 Grace Blackwells in Europe . A larger model is training now . Pricing : $1.36/$4.18 per million input/output tokens, with $0.14 for cached input and 50% off for the first two weeks ( Artificial Analysis ). Context : Vals and Artificial Analysis list a 512K context window. OpenRouter lists 1M context with up to 256K output . Human evals : Mistral says it beats GLM 5.3 on STEM, CAD and finance in human evals and is on par in agentic coding. Coding benchmarks : It reports outperforming GLM 5.3 on DeepSWE and Kimi K3 on Terminal-Bench 4 ( Rozière ). Blind review : In a blind Surge coding review it finished #2, behind only Opus 5 . Artificial Analysis : It scores 38 on the Intelligence Index , level with GPT-6 Luna (max) and the top score from outside the US and China. It scores 50 on the Cyber Index and 82% on CyberGym-E2E-AA. Cost is $1.13 per task, over 4x that of similar-intelligence open models. Vals : It ranks #1 open-weight on HLAB and #9 among open models on the Vals Index . Heavy context use pushes its cost to $13.78 per test . Clinical triage : One evaluator reports a tie for #1 on 669 clinical decisions with zero severe misses. Refusal effect : Cline attributes the cyber lead largely to fewer refusals , saying Opus 5.5 and Astra had about 40% of tasks blocked by their own safety filters. Index gap : Critics note it trails GLM-5.3 and even GLM-5.3-Flash on AA’s index . Open-weight claim : Hugging Face’s CEO points out it isn’t open-weight until the weights ship . Configuration : Mistral warns that many reported failures come from not setting reasoning_effort="high" . Distillation hypothesis : Yuchen Jin speculates, as an unconfirmed opinion, that the Western–Chinese open-model gap reflects Chinese labs’ ability to distill Anthropic and OpenAI models . Open-Weight and API Model Releases: Embeddings, Image, Decision Models EmbeddingGemma 2 : Google’s first natively multimodal open embedding model covers text, code, image, video and audio in one space. It is built on Gemma 4 and released under Apache 2.0 ( DeepMind ). Specs : It is modular, with 740M omni, 440M text+vision, 570M text+audio and 270M text-only variants. It has Matryoshka dimensions from 768 down to 128, 8,192 context and a reported +14% on MTEB Code ( Phil Schmid ). Footprint : It uses roughly 191–567MB of active RAM and handles up to 5.5 minutes of audio or 58 video frames per pass ( Google ). Ecosystem : Day-0 support covers llama.cpp , vLLM , Ollama and Unsloth . It also runs in the browser on WebGPU at ~20–70ms per query . Nano Banana 2.1 : Google’s updated image model is rolling out across the Gemini app, AI Studio, Search and Ads ( Google ). Pricing : $0.034 per image, versus $0.134 for the previous Pro model, which Google says it outperforms ( Schmid ). Arena results : It ranks #4 in Multi-Image Edit, #5 in Text-to-Image and #6 in Image Edit, gaining +80 points over Nano Banana 2 in Text-to-Image ( Arena ). Decision models become a product category : OpenAI Decisions API : The public beta runs on GPT-6 Luna and returns predicates, choices or scores. OpenAI says it is up to 10x faster than the Responses API ( OpenAI Devs ). Pricing starts at $0.10/M input with no output charges . Perplexity : pplx-decider-v1.1-27b is open weights, costs $0.02/M input and tops the new HF Decision Index v0.3. Independent check on Jev : Vals found Jev matched GPT-6 Astra’s 97.5% on claim verification at about 1/500th the cost. Jev also ranked last on LegalBench . Skeptic view : Theo argues model-routing use cases are “absolutely useless” for choosing intelligence levels. Ling 3.1 Flash : The model has 560B total and 25B active parameters and scores 41 on AA’s index , up from 20. It costs $0.30/$0.90 per million tokens, and weights are coming. Reflection Beam : A Zhihu analysis of Beam describes a 501B/23B MoE with 23.8T pretraining tokens. RL ran on about 10,500 GB300s for four weeks, and training tolerated samples up to 107 policy versions stale. Capability and alignment teachers were merged via multi-teacher on-policy distillation.
