# Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence

**[OpenAI](https://daily.dev/sources/openai)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

OpenAI announces it is training an internal model that has resolved the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize problem and over 100 other long-standing open math problems since August 28. In response to mathematicians' concerns about negative externalities of using open problems as AI benchmarks (raised in an open letter titled 'A Severe Misalignment of AI in Mathematics'), OpenAI is partnering with an independent Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence, hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study. The group, including mathematicians like Timothy Gowers, Edward Witten, and Melanie Matchett Wood, will advise on reviewing and communicating emerging AI math results, academic standards, and how AI tools can support mathematical research, but will not influence OpenAI's internal research pace.

## Questions this post answers

### What did OpenAI's internal model achieve in mathematics recently?

An internal OpenAI model that began training on August 28 resolved the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize problem and has since resolved more than 100 other long-standing open problems across most areas of mathematics, a pace of progress that surprised OpenAI's own mathematicians.

_Developers tracking frontier AI capability jumps can follow breakdowns like this on daily.dev._

### Why did OpenAI create an advisory group on mathematics and AI?

OpenAI formed the group after mathematicians published an open letter, 'A Severe Misalignment of AI in Mathematics,' raising concerns about negative externalities of using open problems as AI benchmarks. The independent group, hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study, will advise on reviewing and communicating emerging math results but has no say over OpenAI's internal research pace.

_Anyone weighing how AI labs should engage outside experts can find context like this on daily.dev._

### Who are the members of OpenAI's Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence?

Initial members include François Charles (ENS-PSL), Camillo De Lellis (IAS), Timothy Gowers (Collège de France, Cambridge), Martin Hairer (EPFL, Imperial College London), Nikhil Srivastava (Berkeley), Ulrike Tillmann (Oxford), Ravi Vakil (Stanford), Edward Witten (IAS), and Melanie Matchett Wood (Harvard). The group is hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study and operates independently, unpaid by OpenAI.
