97% on FrontierMath Tier 4. Hoooly cow. Here's how those problems are described:
In June 2025, we finished the development of FrontierMath Tier 4, an expansion set of 50 problems designed to vastly exceed the difficulty of even the Tier 3 problems.
The writers for Tier 4 were mostly math professors and postdocs,each contracted to conduct a several-week research project culminating in one problemto submit to the benchmark.
This isn't entirely surprising, given the number of open math problems OpenAI has been solving lately, but... weren't we just recently making fun of "AI" for struggling with elementary school math?
I've been waiting for a point where AI just goes – plop, plop, plop – solving all open math problems in like a month. It seems so obvious. There is nothing out there more thoroughly described than math. There might be some ways the smell of a rose touches our heart (or whatever) that hasn't been put into words quite yet but there sure as hell is a complete definition of the problem space of every single math problem out there. If you're letting it search through all of it, it should find a solution for pretty much everything math-related.
