„The International Math Olympiad is divided into two days, during which participants are given a four-and-a-half-hour exam, each with three questions.
Some famous winners include Grigori Perelman, who helped advance geometry, and Terence Tao, recipient of the Fields Medal, the highest honor in mathematics. In June, Tao predicted on Lex Fridman’s podcast that AI would not score high on the IMO. He suggested researchers shoot a bit lower.
Yet OpenAI’s latest model solved five out of six of the problems correctly, working under the same testing conditions as humans, Wei said.
AI skeptic Gary Marcus said he was „impressed“ but that the model’s utility is yet to be seen.
The achievement is an example of how fast the technology is developing. Just last year, „AI labs were using grade school math“ to evaluate models, Brown said. And tech billionaire Peter Thiel said last year it would take at least another three years before AI could solve US Math Olympiad problems.“

If you are surprised that a computer does math well, then there is a bridge across the New York East River I’d like to sell you.
