OpenAI Astra Model Solves Advanced Mathematical Problems
OpenAI disclosed that an internal version of its upcoming Astra model has produced Lean-verified solutions to ten previously unsolved problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science. Announced this week, the work includes a construction proving the existence of non-sofic groups and new upper bounds on sphere-packing density near the Cohn-Elkies threshold. The proofs, generated using about $2,000 of computing resources, were posted to GitHub for external verification. Fields Medalist Timothy Gowers said he would endorse at least one proof for publication. OpenAI has not announced a public release date for Astra.
