Breaking news that actually feels like it belongs in a history book.
OpenAI just published 722 math research papers overnight, all generated by an AI model that isn't even publicly released yet.
This isn't data crunching. These papers prove hypotheses mathematicians have chased for decades, disprove theories people assumed were solid, and narrow down answers to puzzles that have stumped experts for generations.
The headline-grabber is one paper touching the Riemann hypothesis, a 150-plus-year-old mystery about prime numbers that sits at the core of modern math.
Here's the simplest way to picture it. Think of advanced math as an old, unexplored map with blank regions nobody's charted. This AI isn't copying the map, it's walking into the blank spots and drawing new terrain.
All of it is posted on GitHub, spanning roughly 20 different mathematical subfields at once. Not a narrow experiment, a sweeping one.
The real question now isn't whether AI can do math. It's how soon human researchers go from leading the discovery to simply verifying it.
