OpenAI solving all these math/etc problems (reportedly 100 coming) is both impressive and insanely unimpressive. Unimpressive because to me it sorta signals that OpenAI has nothing better to be working on than obscure mathematical curios?

  Nothing in TFA seems to imply that this was solved by OpenAI. This looks like an independant researcher.
