What it changes
According to the graders of the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), an AI system reached gold-medal level, with solutions judged on the same criteria as students' papers. It is a competition result, not a mathematical discovery.
What remains unclear
According to Google DeepMind, the IMO's review does not extend to the system, its processes or the underlying model: it certifies the solutions, not how they were produced.
