OpenAI has announced that an internal version of its upcoming model, GPT 5.6 "Sol", has generated 10 novel results in mathematics and theoretical computer science. These breakthroughs address long-standing open problems across various fields, including sphere packing, coding theory, and quantum complexity. OpenAI is releasing the associated manuscripts, formal Lean certificates, and reasoning walkthroughs to facilitate examination and further research by the mathematical community. The computational cost for these discoveries was approximately $2,000 in token usage. AI
