Link: github.com/openai/math P.S.1: This reminds me of the Chinese room argument, though only indirectly. P.S.2: I imagine a few people at OpenAI have looked at the results. Also maybe some other people have looked at some papers since ~1h ago. These are o(eps) terms in the wh…

  • OpenAI released 722 manuscripts organized into 372 families, produced by an unreleased internal model given roughly 4,000 problems.
  • Each result used, on average, three hours of ChatGPT Pro thinking compute with that model.
  • Not all manuscripts carry Lean formalizations, and OpenAI warns some unformalized results 'could have issues.'

Temporal Difference Learning for Diffusion Models (ICML 2026) arxiv.org/abs/2606.15048 By Yangchen Pan (my former PhD student) and co-authors. It reformulates diffusion training as a Markov reward process and introduces a TD objective to encourage temporal consistency across d…

AI Weekly's analysis →
  • The paper introduces a temporal difference objective that penalises inconsistency across the full denoising trajectory rather than only at adjacent time steps.
  • It reframes diffusion as a Markov reward process and denoising as a policy evaluation problem, unifying discrete-time and continuous-time formulations.
  • Reported FID gains are strongest when the number of sampling steps is small, the regime where few-step samplers and low-compute serving live.

There is John Tsitsiklis's work from 2002, but that's for the initial state update model, which feels sample inefficient. Moreover, it assumes either synchronous updates (all states are updated at the same time) or asynchronous but random with uniform distribution. www.jmlr.or…
