OpenAI's Astra Solved 10 Open Math Problems for $2,000 in Compute. With Formal Proofs.

OpenAI's next model solved ten previously unsolved mathematical and computer science problems — including a 20-year-old open question in group theory — and published formally verified Lean proofs on GitHub. All for $2,000 in compute. We cover what this means for AI as a research collaborator, humanoid robots hitting operational logistics centers in the Embodied AI boom, and Meta's holdout from the NSA pre-release review framework.
