OpenAI solves IMO math tasks better than most humans

The math world just witnessed a historic event. An experimental reasoning model from OpenAI has solved math tasks from the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) at a gold medal level. Link in the description. Although the exact model name hasn’t been disclosed, it is known that it hasn’t been released yet and it’s not GPT-5.

The AI system successfully solved 5 out of 6 math tasks. The evaluation followed the same rules used for human participants: the model had 9 hours to think, no internet access, and was required to provide fully reasoned proofs in natural language.

In total, the AI scored 35 out of a possible 42 points — enough for a solid gold medal. No AI model had ever achieved such impressive results at the Math Olympiad before.

Interestingly, researchers at Google DeepMind were also ready to announce their own model’s success on the same IMO math tasks, also at gold medal level. However, they had to wait for marketing approval, so their official announcement is expected later this week. Meanwhile, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has already declared the achievement and received widespread recognition.
