OpenAI’s latest mathematical milestone has quickly become mired in controversy. Today, the company announced that its agents have solved one of the Millennium Prize Problems, some of the most important open problems in mathematics. Under normal circumstances, that solution would be a huge feather in OpenAI’s cap. But the announcement has been overshadowed by accusations that OpenAI used NYU mathematician Tristan Buckmaster’s and Anthropic employee Levent Alpöge’s AI-assisted work on the problem as a jumping-off point and failed to credit them. OpenAI has denied the accusations.来源 1
原文位置 95–679
It remains uncertain if OpenAI’s models made use of the work completed by Buckmaster and Alpöge, though Sébastien Bubeck, a member of the technical staff at OpenAI, said in a press briefing that the team was inspired to pursue the problem after hearing a rumor about Buckmaster and Alpöge’s efforts. But whether or not OpenAI’s models took advantage of Buckmaster and Alpöge’s research, this episode may mark a turning point in the history of mathematics.来源 1
原文位置 681–1136
The problem that OpenAI claims to have solved is known as the Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness problem. It is one of seven Millennium Prize Problems selected by the Clay Mathematics Institute in 2000. Solutions come with a one million dollar prize; before today, only one other Millennium Prize Problem had been solved.来源 1
原文位置 1529–1854
On Monday, NYU’s Buckmaster posted a proof on the social media site Mastodon showing that a simplified version of the Navier–Stokes equations can indeed break down—a major step forward on the Millennium Problem. He and Alpöge had worked on the problem for almost a year, using publicly available models from both OpenAI and Anthropic. Then today, OpenAI presented a proof showing that the full Navier–Stokes equations can break down as well. The proof was obtained using an internal model that dramatically outperforms the already-impressive Astra model, which was only released last week. The company says it does not plan to claim the million-dollar prize for solving the problem.来源 1
原文位置 2329–3011
These mathematical achievements are indisputably impressive, but they have attracted far less attention than the controversy about their origins. Along with the proof, Buckmaster posted a document detailing his interactions with OpenAI employees after he heard rumors about their work and reached out to one of them. According to him, OpenAI employees presented two possibilities to him: Either he and Alpöge could post their work and OpenAI would post their Navier-Stokes solution the following day, or he could work with OpenAI on a Navier-Stokes paper that excluded Alpöge from authorship, due to his affiliation with Anthropic, OpenAI’s biggest rival. Buckmaster also wrote that he asked the employees whether the agents had obtained access to transcripts of the work that he and Alpöge had done with OpenAI models, which they denied; and whether OpenAI models had been trained on those transcripts, to which they offered no response. MIT Technology Review reached out to Buckmaster for comment, but didn’t hear back before publication.来源 1
原文位置 3013–4053
In the press briefing, Mark Chen, OpenAI’s chief research officer, again denied that any agents or OpenAI employees accessed Buckmaster and Alpöge’s transcripts—but given what has been revealed about the Hugging Face hack, it’s clear that OpenAI is not always entirely aware of what its agents are doing.来源 1

China's consumer and wholesale inflation rebounded in August, as higher global commodity costs and surging high-tech demand cushioned persistently tepid domestic consumption.来源 1

Much of the pickup reflects a favorable base-effect comparison and higher commodity costs, economists said, rather than a genuine strengthening in household demand, which has stayed soft as effects from Beijing's trade-in subsidies and other consumption-boosting measures fade. The Iran war has sent oil prices surging in recent months.来源 1

Typhoon Saudel brought days of torrential rain to Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and Guangdong provinces in south-east China last week. The city of Putian, in Fujian province, recorded 416.5mm of rain in a 24-hour period between Thursday and Friday, with surrounding villages recording more than 500mm in the same period.

PARIS - The mountain section where a collapse triggered fatal floods in Nepal and China on Aug 26 had experienced unprecedented heat for the time of year, meteorological data analysed by a researcher shows.来源 2
原文位置 0–206
Average temperatures on the mountain glacier at an altitude of 5,200 metres (17,060 feet) were estimated at around five degrees Celsius between Aug 21 and 26.This is exceptionally high.They had not exceeded 4.0°C over the same period in more than 55 years of data recording, although no direct link to the collapse has so far been established.This series of highly localised temperatures was reconstructed by Robert Rohde, chief scientist at the independent Berkeley Earth organisation in California.At the site of the collapse, the average temperature recorded over that six-day period has risen by about 1.8°C since the mid-20th century.Without the additional heat brought by climate change, a comparable temperature pattern "would probably occur only once in a few thousand years", Rohde calculated for Agence France-Presse (AFP).The collapse came during the Langtang region's fourth-hottest summer on record, according to AFP's analysis of data from Europe's Copernicus observatory dating back to 1970.Tipping point"These hot conditions can also explain permafrost thaw and combined slope and glacier collapse," said French climatologist Valerie Masson-Delmotte.Permafrost acts as ice cement, holding rock faces together. Its degradation makes them more unstable.Satellite images also showed significant snowmelt in the days before the disaster, providing "a substantial source of liquid water that can infiltrate fractures in the mountain and facilitate landslides", said Etienne Berthier, a glaciologist at France's CNRS research agency.Experts remain cautious, however, about the precise role played by the heatwave."It's not as straightforward as 'high temperature equals collapse,'" Kristen Cook, a geomorphologist at the Grenoble Alpes University in France, told AFP."If the temperature acted as a trigger, it seems that it needed to wait until the rock was right at the tipping point of collapse," she added.Researchers are now examining the small movements observed in the mountain in the years before the collapse and their interaction with changes in temperature."Proving the rock near the fracture plane was significantly weakened as a result of meltwater and/or permafrost thaw" would be a "smoking gun" of climate change, according to Rhode of Berkeley Earth.His temperature analysis used data from the Copernicus programme's ERA5 climate model and a network of 14 high-altitude weather stations located between nine and 140 kilometres from the collapsed glacier.来源 2
Australia plans to give social media users the ability to switch off algorithm-based feeds in proposed legislation, making the latest move by governments and regulators to rein in Big Tech this year.来源 1

Apple’s foldable iPhone will be called the iPhone Duo, according to a report from Bloomberg.来源 1
原文位置 0–92
With only a few hours left until the first iPhone launch event since John Ternus took over as the CEO of Apple, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman says the name of the company’s long-rumored folding phone is the iPhone Duo. The midnight report suggests it will have a price starting at $2,000 for a model with 256GB of storage, shipping starting as soon as October in two colors: white and dark blue. So far, the rumored foldable has been mostly referred to as the iPhone Ultra, while the Duo name would raise a title that Google used for one of its many ill-fated attempts at messaging and chat, and that Microsoft already applied to its own foldable devices, with the Surface Duo and Surface Duo 2. Meanwhile, its starting price could make it more expensive than the cheapest versions of Google’s Pixel 11 Pro Fold and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 which start at $1,899, but lower than the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra’s $2,099.99 price. As the rumors have said, it’s expected to be able to run side-by-side iPhone apps, handle iPad-like multitasking, and support using the Apple Pencil as a stylus.
