One sign error pulled three of OpenAI's AI-generated math papers within a day of release

OpenAI withdrew three AI-generated math papers on October 7, one day after releasing 722 manuscripts, because of a sign error in an argument they shared. Only 300 of the 719 remaining results have Lean proofs a computer can check, so most of the collection still depends on human review.

OpenAI posts 719 math papers from an unreleased model a week after its advisers asked labs to stop

OpenAI posted 719 math papers from an unreleased model on October 6, a week after its IAS-based advisers asked labs to stop such testing. Three mathematicians showed the same day that its machine-checked Navier-Stokes proof proves less than the paper claims, so its results now rest on ordinary peer review.
