OpenAI Astra solves 10 open math problems with Lean verification
OpenAI's Astra model has claimed solutions to ten long-standing open problems in mathematics, including non-sofic group and Connes Rigidity disproofs, with formal verification in Lean 4 at a compute cost of $2,000. The results are publicly verifiable but await community validation. A related Leiden declaration controversy highlights reliability debates.
