SAN FRANCISCO — OpenAI has released 722 mathematical manuscripts produced by an unreleased artificial intelligence model, claiming solutions to hundreds of long-standing open problems in a move that has both impressed and unsettled the mathematics community.

The manuscripts, published Tuesday in a public GitHub repository, cover 372 "result families" that group related papers together, according to the company. The release is the largest public display yet of an AI system's ability to tackle research-level mathematics, but many of the results have not been independently verified.

The Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence, an independent panel of mathematicians known as AGMAI that OpenAI consulted on the release, said the batch includes solutions to "hundreds" of open questions. The group has not endorsed the findings, according to reports.

How the results were produced

OpenAI said the unreleased frontier model was posed roughly 4,000 problems during an internal evaluation. The 722 manuscripts represent the results the company judged significant enough to publish.

The company said the "average result" used computing power equivalent to about three hours of ChatGPT Pro thinking time.

Alongside the papers, OpenAI released summaries of some of the model's reasoning, estimates of the computing resources used and statistics on the number of problems attempted. According to Scientific American, the company did not publish the prompts used to generate the results. OpenAI has also not disclosed the name of the model.
