We're excited to be partnering with Anthropic and OpenAI to host the world's first hackathon devoted to research-level mathematics. 40 hours and $2M in compute to solve, understand, and present an open math problem. Applications are live at https://lnkd.in/d79qFQ4s We look forward to seeing you all on October 30 at Caltech!

OpenAI launches new AI model for life sciences research
Researchers are drowning in data. AI could help.

OpenAI just blooped hundreds of proofs and counterexamples to open problems: github.com/openai/math/tree/main/preprin… Boggling.

github.comOpenAI picked 719 mathematics problems, generated manuscripts for them, and released the set on its own terms. The Association for Human Mathematics called it a demonstration of power rather than scholarship, and three were withdrawn for a sign error the next day. A DeepMind survey finds researchers moving the same direction on their own, toward safer and more incremental questions once AI is in the workflow. The week's open data commitments go the.
