"When you work at a frontier lab, you usually know where frontier capabilities are months before anyone else. But this result is brand new, using recently developed techniques. It was a surprise even to many researchers at OpenAI. Today, everyone gets to see where the frontier is."
and
"This was a small team effort led by @alexwei_ . He took a research idea few believed in and used it to achieve a result fewer thought possible. This also wouldn’t be possible without years of research+engineering from many at @OpenAI and the wider AI community."
"frontier" seems to be "zapad" for OpenAI
They have a parallel effort to corner Ramanujan called https://epoch.ai/frontiermath/tier-4
(& Problem 6, combinatorics, the one class of problems not yet fallen to AI?)
The hope for humanity is that of the big names associated to FrontierMath (starkly opposite to oAI proper) Daniel is the one youngish nonexsoviet guy :)
That brand new technique? Training on the test data. /s
Do you have any proof to support this claim?
Hey, cheating is also an artform.
