Advisory group demands OpenAI release withheld Yang–Mills AI proofs

The Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence calls on OpenAI to release the natural-language and Lean outputs behind its claimed proofs of Yang–Mills existence, quantum chromodynamics and a completion of the Standard Model.

OpenAI says its model proved Yang–Mills existence and quantum chromodynamics, and that Lean checked the Yang–Mills proof by 16 October. The group argues that because OpenAI said it delayed release until formalization was complete, there is no scientific reason to delay further.

The Yang–Mills Working Group has sent its answer to the advisory group, according to Andrew Curran on X. Curran's post does not say what the answer contains.

    Mathematicians question how OpenAI shared its claimed proofs with physicists

    AIMiles Brundage reposts a quote from mathematician W. T. Gowers criticizing the handling of OpenAI's recent drop. The quoted post says the drop includes a refutation of ETH, a proof of local smoothing implying the full Kakeya conjecture, and a proof of the existence of pure Yang-Mills theory. AGMAI asks for immediate release of the materials connected to the Yang-Mills result.

    Advisory group urges OpenAI to release withheld Yang-Mills proofs

    AIThe Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence publicly calls on OpenAI to release the natural-language and Lean outputs behind its claimed existence proofs for Yang-Mills theory, quantum chromodynamics and a completion of the Standard Model. OpenAI says its model proved Yang-Mills existence on 9 September and quantum chromodynamics on 18 September, with Lean checking the first by 16 October. The group argues that since OpenAI has said it delayed release until Lean formalization was complete, there is no scientific reason to delay further.
