‘Pure insanity’: Mathematicians will need years to make sense of OpenAI’s latest drop

OpenAI followed some of the group’s advice. It said it would be funding a series of workshops and conferences around its work in mathematics to help the community process and understand its work, though it provided no details as to what these might look like or when they may occur. The company also disclosed significantly more information than it had in previous releases — again, researchers said this was a low bar — including that its model attempted more than 4,000 problems and that a typical result used around three hours of ChatGPT Pro thinking compute. It has also implemented “protocols for paper revisions and citations” and on GitHub said it “will preserve the public release history” of the collection. As of October 8th, that record already listed numerous corrections, including revisions on more than a dozen manuscripts and the removal of three papers due to a “sign error” it says invalidates an argument. OpenAI did not respond on the record to The Verge’s request for more details.
