# Advisory Group on Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence

Hosted at the Institute for Advanced Study, the independent, unpaid group will advise OpenAI on research standards and the dissemination of math capabilities.

- The advisory group operates independently, can offer unprompted feedback, publish commentary publicly, and adjust its own membership.
- Members are unpaid by OpenAI and will not advise on the pacing of OpenAI's internal model progress.
- Initial members include Timothy Gowers, Martin Hairer, Edward Witten, Melanie Matchett Wood, and Camillo De Lellis.
- OpenAI reported that a new internal model solved the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize problem and over 100 open math problems.

## Why it matters

Mathematicians gain an independent formal body to shape how AI research tools and machine-generated mathematical proofs are verified and shared.
