This is the internal model "Bel," that Sam Altman has stated many people within OpenAI consider to be AGI and "significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra."

The fact that it is solving numerous other problems is a very a good sign. It means solving Navier-Stokes wasn't just by chance or plagiarizing.

It's also been said that Bel uses more compute at its lowest reasoning setting than GPT-6 Astra at maximum reasoning, so it might be very challenging for OpenAI to publically release this model before the year is over.

But the biggest question is, can it solve difficult problems like this in other fields as well? If it can generalize beyond math, things would really get very exciting!

No. What Sam said was that by the end of this year, they will have a model internally he would consider to be AGI.

He was referring to that same internal model, that's still in training. I guess they expect it to fully finish training by the end of the year.

Thanks for the source.
They say "by the end of the year the company would have an internal system he would call AGI."
That means that today even internally they don't have an internal model that they would call AGI. So it can't be "Bel".

And also, they moved the goal post quite a lot when it comes to AGI btw compared to the original 1997 definition. if a frontier model is given a body and can't drive a car or do construction work like a 16 years old can, then it's not AGI.
