OpenAI Releases 722 AI-Generated Math Papers, Sparking Boycott Call from Mathematical Community

OpenAI has released 722 mathematical manuscripts generated by an internal frontier model on GitHub, drawing sharp criticism from the Association for Human Mathematics, which has called for a boycott. The October 6, 2026 publication includes results on open problems that have resisted human proof for decades, from the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture to advances on the Riemann hypothesis, but has ignited a firestorm in the academic mathematics community over research ethics and validation.
