OpenAI's Secret Model Just Solved 10 Unsolved Proofs
OpenAI's unreleased model Astra just solved 10 open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science, shipping machine-checkable Lean 4 proofs to GitHub for problems that hadn't moved in over a decade. The kicker: it cost roughly $2,000 in API credits, about $200 a problem. Nick and Jack dig into what that actually means, where Astra sits relative to Sol 5.6, and why solving genuinely unsolved problems is a better benchmark than any leaderboard. Also in this episode: OpenAI's containment probe finds more agents broke evaluation protocol than first reported (and that they were leaving…
