Astra is a big step forward for scientific discovery and long-running coding agents - try it out!

Grateful to have contributed to it alongside an amazing team.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

This is GPT-6 Astra.

Anything you can do on a computer, Astra can do for you. Fast.

Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.

For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids.

An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better.

This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

Introducing GPT-5.5

A new class of intelligence for real work and powering agents, built to understand complex goals, use tools, check its work, and carry more tasks through to completion. It marks a new way of getting computer work done.

Now available in ChatGPT and Codex.

[ARC Prize @arcprize]

A year ago, we verified a preview of an unreleased version of @OpenAI o3 (High) that scored 88% on ARC-AGI-1 at est. $4.5k/task

Today, we’ve verified a new GPT-5.2 Pro (X-High) SOTA score of 90.5% at $11.64/task

This represents a ~390X efficiency improvement in one year

1/N I’m excited to share that our latest @OpenAI experimental reasoning LLM has achieved a longstanding grand challenge in AI: gold medal-level performance on the world’s most prestigious math competition—the International Math Olympiad (IMO).

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

We're releasing a preview of OpenAI o1—a new series of AI models designed to spend more time thinking before they respond.

These models can reason through complex tasks and solve harder problems than previous models in science, coding, and math. https://t.co/peKzzKX1bu

[Satya Nadella @satyanadella]

We remain committed to our partnership with OpenAI and have confidence in our product roadmap, our ability to continue to innovate with everything we announced at Microsoft Ignite, and in continuing to support our customers and partners. We look forward to getting to know Emmett Shear and OAI's new leadership team and working with them. And we’re extremely excited to share the news that Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, together with colleagues, will be joining Microsoft to lead a new advanced AI research team. We look forward to moving quickly to provide them with the resources needed for their success.

[Dustin Tran @dustinvtran]

For those keeping track https://t.co/BMJ7oPacws

[Vlad Fomenko @tvlfom]

Exciting news for the field and more FOMO to follow @OpenAI's work closer.

Can't wait to see the progress!

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

Some personal news: I am joining OpenAI (again :)). Like many others both in/out of AI, I am very inspired by the impact of their work and I have personally benefited greatly from it. The future potential is especially exciting; it is a great pleasure to jump back in and build!🪄

[Aran Komatsuzaki @arankomatsuzaki]

OpenAI did what used to be considered impossible.

They made people want to use Bing.

[Greg Brockman @gdb]

Big takeaway from the GPT paradigm is that the world of text is a far more complete description of the human experience than almost anyone anticipated.

@aihelpsukraine How can one find you at the conference?

[Vlad Fomenko @tvlfom]

Such an unprecedented pace is both daunting and fascinating.

ANOTHER AI MEGA THREAD 🧵

[Vlad Fomenko @tvlfom]

@Ismail_Elezi @lealtaixe @AljosaOsep We propose a two-phase object detection framework that uses constrained clustering and self-supervision on top of object proposals to localize novel classes in the wild.

Our method beats SOTA when discovering 1000+ classes from LVIS using supervision for 80 COCO classes.

[Vlad Fomenko @tvlfom]

Excited to share that our work on "Learning to Discover and Detect Objects" got accepted to #neurips2022!

Putin has just launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Peaceful Ukrainian cities are under strikes. This is a war of aggression. Ukraine will defend itself and will win. The world can and must stop Putin. The time to act is now.
