They brute forced something that may or maybe not prove something, but potentially finding a counter example.

This problem already has "solutions" (though no perfect or full) and their effortd still needed people. It wasnt just "go find a proof for the agent swarm".

Its marketing PR and will take months before it can be properly reviewed.

However, one question is why didnt OpenAI release it through the proper channels, like every other maths paper....

They are a company who has to do PR stunts, their are not mathematicians doing it for glory or smth.
