OpenAI’s nameless model just changed the odds of P = NP...

The Brief

  • An unnamed OpenAI model reportedly wrote an algorithm that solves 3-SAT faster than exponential time.
  • The description says this breaks a 27-year-old hypothesis that over 800 published papers depend on.
  • The video is a breakdown of the claim.

Why watch · If the claimed result holds, it would bear on the widely assumed hardness of 3-SAT and the many published papers built on that assumption.

  • P vs NP
  • 3-SAT
  • OpenAI
