a general-purpose model solved a major open problem in mathematics. we'll be saying this a lot over the coming years, but this is a kinda big milestone. i'm very excited for AI to greatly extend our understanding of the world, but still, i have complicated feelings today.

we've been building agents around the llm, starting with conversations, adding tools, giving rules, logging everything, and storing a form of it as retrievable state

An OpenAI model has achieved a major breakthrough in mathematics, by disproving a central conjecture in discrete geometry that was first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.

// Memory as a Model // The paper augments any LLM with a separate trained memory model that stores, retrieves, and integrates facts on its behalf. It decouples memory updates from base-model weight updates. It achieves continual-learning robustness without catastrophic

Study: LLMs Form Human-Like Hierarchical Emotion Structures
By

Do LLMs have a human-like emotional hierarchy? Harvard, UCSD, and NTT researchers analyzed how AI models organize emotions. They found LLMs naturally form hierarchical emotion trees that match psychological models—larger models create more complex structures. But they also
