As AI neared a landmark proof, researchers raced to publish

So, when rumors spread that OpenAI had proved the famous unique games conjecture, MIT researcher Dor Minzer and his students hurried to share their own important result. Their 95-page paper explores a closely related question and marks a major step toward understanding why some approximate solutions to constraint problems are so difficult to find. Just three days after the rumors began, the team posted its mathematically complete draft, even though it was not yet polished. OpenAI later announced a proof of the conjecture among hundreds of other mathematical results, while researchers warmly praised Minzer’s work.
