Algorithmic breakthrough: AI tackled task insurmountable for everyone

GPT-5 with experimental reasoning model from OpenAI solved all 12 problems of the most prestigious International Collegiate Programming Championship ICPC!

Particularly impressive is that GPT-5 handled a task that proved insurmountable for all 139 student teams! Although it required 9 attempts, the result speaks for itself. Artificial intelligence crossed a crucial threshold in solving complex algorithmic problems.

In this technology race, Google also demonstrated impressive results. Their Gemini 2.5 Deep Think solved 10 out of 12 problems, which would theoretically secure 2nd place on the tournament table. Important to note that both companies emphasize their models received no special preparation for this competition!

The championship held September 5 in Baku maintained its student essence. Official winners were students from Saint Petersburg State University, solving 11 problems. Gold medals also went to teams from Japan and China with 10 solved problems.

Interestingly, among former ICPC participants are Google co-founder Sergey Brin and OpenAI Chief Scientist Jakub Pachocki. The circle closes. Artificial intelligence conquers the competition that once shaped the elite of world programming!

Google DeepMind explores formation of parallel AI economy

Interesting concept of AI economy is presented in new Google DeepMind research. Link in description. Scientists analyzed rapidly forming reality. In which AI agents transform into independent economic players, capable of trading, negotiating and creating value without direct human participation. And if this process remains without proper control, autonomous systems may form their own parallel economy, closely connected to human one. Which carries both enormous opportunities and serious risks.
