OpenAI announces three big science discoveries and a new way to work with academics
Overview
OpenAI said it has three more major discoveries in mathematics, computer science, and physics, less than a month after releasing hundreds of manuscripts it described as solutions to long-standing mathematics questions. External experts helped guide the computer science and physics work. Results were added to GitHub, including local smoothing for the Euclidean wave equation.
Key facts
- OpenAI calls the external experts shepherds and says they guided the computer science and physics results.
- On the math problem, advisers recommended releasing the AI output so researchers could prepare their own explanations.
- A GitHub entry covers local smoothing for the Euclidean wave equation, and the available proof note stops mid-sentence.
Key figures
- three — count of new major discoveries spanning math, computer science, and physics
- hundreds — manuscripts OpenAI said it released on long-standing mathematics questions
- Less than a month — stated gap after the earlier mass manuscript release
Context
The Verge item is dated 2026-10-26 and says the results went to GitHub that day.
