Message dated 19 January, earlier, Neel Somani, founder of the block chain software development company Eclipse, wrote in X that it was used OpenAI The latest GPT-5.2 Pro deciphered another famous ErdősmathTrouble。
Then mathematiciansTao Chul-chulThis post is part of our special coverage Global Voices 2011The model almost independently completed the answer process on at least one Erdős and assessed it as one of the clearest examples of "AI solving open-door problems"。
The president and co-founder of OpenAI, Greg Brockman, also transmitted and commented on X as an important sign of progress in mathematics and science。
It was pointed out that, although there was evidence in the literature, the solution given by GPT-5.2 Pro " was clearly different from the previous one" and was of research value。
According to the information received, GPT-5.2 Pro is one of the advanced model series released by OpenAI last year and is located in a complex professional task, emphasizing greater reasoning and structured output。
Official documents show that the series has made significant progress in scientific and mathematical tasks, generating detailed arguments and exploring assumptions and directions, but still requires validation by human experts。
Tao Chul-hyun also cautioned that, despite the breakthrough, most of the open-ended issues varied greatly, with only a few of them suitable for the existing tools under limited human guidance。
Under the relevant X post, users have also noted in the note that Somani's presentation is flawed because the relevant issues have been documented in the historical literature, but in any case the GPT-5.2 Pro solution is still considered to be an exploration of “different paths”。
