Research & technical analysis

1 expert

Evidence, methods and technical implications.

“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(…”

Questions & unknowns

1 expert

What remains unresolved or contested.

“OpenAI is working on at least 722 (so far) math manuscripts, all on GitHub in various stages of verificantion github.com/openai/math Why? I guess because they can?”

Context & explanation

1 expert

Background, chronology and why it matters.

“Oh my god, OpenAI just made the single largest advancement in mathematics and number theory in modern history. They released a quasi reimann hypothesis. This is just one of 722 proofs and advancements they released all at once. github.com/openai/math”

Dashiell: I don't think there's a world where mathematicians aren't pissed about this. 1. Dumping everything is what the advisory group said 2. Just yesterday people were mad that Ant paid two experts to dig…
Naomi Saphra: I think (2) is actually good. It is weird, and makes mathematicians into some kind of benchmark evaluation annotator which they don’t like, but it’s just a hard time to be a mathematician. Destroyi…
Naomi Saphra: One big consequence here is you can’t use the duration of an open problem as a sign of difficulty/importance. But at least right now, there’s no way to develop interesting open problems through RLV…

“It's possible I'm wrong, and they didn't actually closely follow the advice given by that board (AGMAI). Depends on how well we think they did on part 2B here.”

“I think the recommendations are the only thing that has been published agmai.org/general-sep29/”

SE Gyges: i would like everyone complaining to state what they would have preferred to have happened here.
SE Gyges: why? and, like, i guess they could but i assume they tried basically all of them
SE Gyges: i'mma keep it real with you i don't remember who i was quote posting and did not intend it as a dunk on them, i am simply displeased with the discourse overall

Dashiell: This is just saying that the English proof does not directly map to the Lean proof, not that the Lean proof is wrong. Let's please be normal about this
Shubhendu Trivedi: Yeah, it's mostly fine from what I hear. But the point is that no one at OpenAI understands the results itself to get formalization itself right. In the slop dump this is now a common theme (not ta…

Luis Villa: Many of the core AI developers agree with this completely! But it tends to also correlate with other beliefs that boil down to “it won’t matter because once they get that smart they’ll enslave (or …
Dashiell: Writing and thinking about this absolutely exists, but for the most part only in small sub-communities. The closest thing to a public discussion has been from Amanda Askell and the very light "mode…
