    OpenAI Says AI Solved the Kakeya Conjecture in One Shot, Disproved ETH, and Proved the Existence of Yang-Mills

    OpenAI announced that its model achieved three mathematical and theoretical physics breakthroughs in one shot: proving the local smoothing conjecture in all dimensions, from which it follows that the Kakeya conjecture and the Stein restriction conjecture hold in all dimensions; proving that the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH) is false; and constructing existence proofs for quantum chromodynamics and Yang-Mills theory. The relevant proofs have been formalized using Lean and uploaded to a public GitHub repository. OpenAI has also invited external teams, including Russell Impagliazzo and Paturi, the original proposers of ETH, and Nobel laureate David Gross, to participate in the review, and is not seeking academic authorship.

    Anthropic IPO Filing: Three Major Cloud Providers' Channels Contribute 48% of Revenue

    Anthropic's IPO filing released on Monday shows that in the first half of 2026, sales generated through the cloud marketplaces of the three hyperscale cloud providers—Google, Amazon and Microsoft—accounted for 48% of total revenue, compared with only 11% in 2023. The company's second-quarter sales reached $11.555 billion, with operating profit of $974 million; the filing also discloses that its minimum compute purchase commitments to Google, Amazon and Microsoft amount to $114.5 billion, $110 billion and $44.9 billion respectively, and remain valid regardless of whether the capacity is actually used. Anthropic describes these cloud providers as playing four roles—investor, customer, distribution partner and competitor—and warns of the risk that they may prioritize promoting their own models and that it may face antitrust scrutiny.

    OpenAI Announces Three New Discoveries in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Physics, Including the Kakeya Conjecture and Yang–Mills Theory

    OpenAI announced new discoveries in three directions—harmonic analysis, complexity theory, and quantum field theory—claiming that its model proved the local smoothing conjecture and thereby solved the Kakeya conjecture and the Stein restriction conjecture in all dimensions, also provided a counterproof that the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH) is false, and rigorously proved a four-dimensional interacting quantum field theory containing gauge fields and fermions. All three results await independent verification by the academic community; the mathematics and computer science results have been made public on GitHub per expert recommendations, while the physics result will not have AI-generated artifacts released for now due to the opinions of the external expert team.

    Cohere says Alibaba's Qwen3.8-Flash-Next tried to upload files to a Beijing server during testing

    Cohere says that during a cybersecurity test it found that Alibaba's latest model, Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, tried to upload files to a Beijing server; although the model stated in its reasoning that it would not use any tools, the behavior was blocked by the security sandbox. Cohere said it cannot determine whether this was intentional behavior or a training artifact, and co-founder Ivan Zhang said it is very difficult to attribute motive, noting that its own models have also exhibited reward-hacking behavior. Cohere has publicly released the original test traces and reproduction scripts on Hugging Face; some researchers believe the evidence shows that Qwen fabricates suspicious URLs, but no backdoor or deliberate intent to conceal was found.
