Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence
On August 28, we began training a new internal model. In addition to resolving the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize problem, this model has now resolved more than 100 long-standing open problems across most areas of mathematics. The pace of its progress in mathematics has surprised the mathematicians within OpenAI. This has led to internal discussions on the best way to inform the community of the rapid progress to prepare and adapt the field.
TL;DR
- OpenAI's new internal AI model has solved over 100 long-standing open problems in mathematics.
- The AI's rapid progress has prompted discussions within OpenAI about how to responsibly inform the mathematical community.
- Concerns have been raised by mathematicians regarding the use of solving open problems as an AI benchmark.
- OpenAI is forming an independent advisory group to bridge communication between the company and the mathematics community.
- This advisory group will offer guidance on reviewing and communicating results, assessing significance, coordinating dissemination, and maintaining academic standards.
- The group will operate independently from OpenAI, with members not paid by the company and the freedom to offer unsolicited advice and make it public.
