This is a great take. Human intelligence and computer intelligence are not different points on a line, but in a high dimensional space—and we should explore more of the space.

Terence Tao proposes what he calls a "Copernican view of intelligence". Instead of buying into the common, one-dimensional narrative that artificial intelligence will simply evolve from "subhuman" to "superhuman" and ultimately make humanity entirely redundant, Tao urges us to

Five Erdos problems at once! The proofs are getting more elegant as the models improve 👀

We’ve just released another paper solving five further Erdős problems with an internal model at OpenAI: https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.06609. Several of the proofs were especially enjoyable to digest while writing the paper. My personal favorite was the solution to Erdős Problem 1091. The

RT Mehtaab Sawhney In a beautiful recent paper, Vishesh Jain and Clayton Mizgerd used GPT-5.4 Pro to prove a striking result in the theory of Markov chains: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2604.03937 They study the adjacent transposition Markov chain on the symmetric group. A conjecture of Fill, recently settled by Greaves and Zhu, determined which parameters of this chain maximize the spectral gap, a natural quantity controlling how fast the chain mixes. Jain and Mizgerd go further and characterize exactly when this extremal spectral gap is achieved, answering another question of Fill. As they explain in the paper, once the first part was in place, GPT-5.4 Pro was able to one-shot generate the second part of the main result. From talking with the authors, my understanding is that this would likely have taken substantial effort without GPT. Furthermore even given the first part, several ingredients, such as the piecewise eigenvector construction in Proposition 6.6, were new to them. Just another example of how AI is already changing the everyday practice of research mathematics. Original tweet: https://x.com/mehtaab_sawhney/status/2041354267286737243

RT Simon Smith I’ve been critical of OpenAI lately, but for the past three weeks my family has been dealing with a health issue with my dad, and a ChatGPT shared project with live document syncing has been essential to organizing and understanding everything happening. Me, my four siblings, my mom, and my dad have faced an onslaught of information from various doctors and nurses, which we’ve captured in hundreds of text messages and documents and scans and you name it. ChatGPT has helped us collect this information in a single place, make sense of it, and interrogate it to make the most informed decisions possible. Also, credit where due: Claude played an important role as well, by ingesting iMessages and synthesizing summarizes from them to upload to ChatGPT, as well as by extracting text from a bunch of HEIC document scans. I think those of us, like me, excited at AI’s potential get frustrated when we can see issues so clearly, like ChatGPT’s bad design skills, and Claude’s increasing instability and confusing usage consumption. But at times like this I’m reminded of how incredible this technology already is, letting me and my family make sense and act on hundreds of pieces of information, empowering us in the face of a disjointed and fragmented healthcare system.

It took another 70 years before Kepler, working from Tycho Brahe's unprecedentedly precise observations, replaced Copernicus’s circles with ellipses - finally making heliocentrism empirically superior. Terence Tao's point is that science needs a high temperature setting. If we only fund and follow what's most state of the art today, we kill the ideas that might need decades of work to surpass some overall plateau.

Companies have a ton of urgency to deploy AI in their organizations and we’re sprinting to meet that demand. More than 1 million businesses run on OpenAI products. Codex is now at 2M+ weekly active users, up nearly 4x since the start of the year. API usage jumped 20% in the week after GPT-5.4 launched. And Frontier, which launched last month to help enterprises build, deploy, and manage AI coworkers that can do real work, has way more demand than we can handle. That's why we launched Frontier Alliances so we leverage our ecosystem of partners to scale. And that is also why we are launching a dedicated deployment arm tasked with embedding Forward Deployed Engineers deeply inside of enterprises.  This project has been in the works with our investor and alliance partners since last December, and we are grateful for them and their partnership. We’re still early, but the speed of adoption is a clear signal of where this is headed. We're excited to not just be building these technologies but also building many ways for companies to deploy them and get impact. https://www.reuters.com/business/openai-courts-private-equity-join-enterprise-ai-venture-sources-say-2026-03-16/ Original tweet: https://x.com/fidjissimo/status/2033537381907710092

Much of today’s scientific tooling has remained unchanged for decades. Prism changes that. @ALupsasca joins @kevinweil and @vicapow to walk through what it looks like when GPT-5.2 works inside a LaTeX project with full paper context.

It seems some people are misinterpreting comments @thefriley made in Davos. To be 100% clear: she was not saying that OpenAI plans to take a share of individual users’, entrepreneurs’, or scientists' discoveries. We’ve heard interest from some large organizations in licensing or IP-based partnerships, and we’re open to exploring creative ways to partner and align incentives. That’s not something we’re doing today, and if we do it in the future, it would be a bespoke agreement with a company, not something that would impact individual users. As it relates to Prism: you log into Prism with your ChatGPT account. In ChatGPT, you control in settings whether your (anonymized) data is used to improve our models. Prism follows the setting you've chosen in ChatGPT. So you're in control. https://x.com/kevinweil/status/2016210486778642808

RT roon the primary criticism of AI you hear has nothing to do with water use or existential risk whatsoever: most people just think it’s fake and doesn’t work and is a tremendous bubble eating intellectual property while emitting useless slop along the way. when GPT-5 came out and perhaps didn’t live up to what people were expecting for a full version bump, the timeline reaction was not mild, it was a full-scale meltdown. there are many intelligent (and unintelligent) people who latched onto this moment to declare AI scaling over, thousands of viral tweets, still a prevailing view in many circles. The financial-cultural phenomenon of machine intelligence is one of the most powerful in decades, and there are a lot of people who would like for its position to be weakened, many outright celebrating its losses and setback. Michael burry of ‘Big Short’ fame, unfortunately the type of guy to predict 12 of the last 3 recessions, has bet himself into insolvency on the AI bubble’s collapse one of the stranger things about this time is that there are very few secrets, and very little reason to be so misinformed. model labs have very little space in between creating new capabilities and launching them to the public. The view among the well informed public and not just “lab insiders” is that machine intelligence is absurdly joyfully smart at so many new things every month. It’s actively contributing on the cutting edge of programming and math and science. Sebastian Bubeck and co’s recent paper reports that GPT5-pro is capable of producing results on the frontier of theoretical physics research, Terry Tao wrote a blog about “vibe-proving” Erdos problems with the auto-formalization AI Aristotle. You can read that these scientists are using it to actively contribute to black hole physics, tighten mathematical bounds in optimization theory, churning morasses of biomedical data into real insight. Google Deepmind, from the way they are signalling, seems to be slowly closing a dragn...

Accelerating scientific progress is one of the most impactful ways AI can benefit society. Models can already help researchers reason through hard problems — but doing this well means testing models on tougher evaluations and in real scientific workflows grounded in experiments.
