ChatGPT 5.4 Solved a 64-Year-Old Math Problem

ChatGPT 5.4 Solved a 64-Year-Old Math Problem

Just came across something interesting and wanted to see what people here think

apparently a 23-year-old used ChatGPT 5.4 Pro to solve one of the Erdős problems that had been open for around 60 years. what’s surprising is that it was done in basically one go, and the model took about 1 hour 20 minutes to work through it

from what I understood, the solution used a known formula that just hadn’t been applied to this specific problem before, which is kind of fascinating if true.

not sure how verified this is yet, but the chat is public if anyone wants to take a look:
