Elliot Glazer: GPT-6 Astra check suggests OpenAI’s abelian-eightfolds Hodge paper is flawed

Elliot Glazer @ElliotGlazerX

Why it matters

First public flag of the error that led OpenAI to withdraw three manuscripts hours later.

Summary

Posted 02:46 UTC on 8 Oct (evening of 7 Oct in the US). Glazer says that, on a tip, he had GPT-6 Astra check ‘Algebraicity of Weil classes on split abelian eightfolds’ and it ‘seems to be flawed’. OpenAI withdrew it and two dependent papers in its 7 Oct history.md update.

Archived text

Based on a hot tip: I had Astra check the OpenAI paper “Algebraicity of Weil classes on split abelian eightfolds”, and it seems to be flawed. This is one of the nonformalized results. Concerning.
