On October 27, 2026, OpenAI announced three results in computer science, math and physics, including a claimed refutation of the exponential time hypothesis via a deterministic sub-exponential algorithm for counting satisfying assignments of fixed-width CNF formulas. Russell Impagliazzo, Ramamohan Paturi and MIT's Ryan Williams are leading the public review of the disproof, while the evaluation group examining the ETH claim has signed an NDA and is unpaid. The math result was released in full with prompts and outputs; the physics result stays private as incomplete, with David Gross to lead the Yang-Mills write-up. OpenAI's math advisory group publicly recommended open access, and named physicists called the handpicked review group a disaster. The refutation remains a claim rather than an established…
