💥 Today we say “hello world” from OpenAI for Science.

We’re releasing a paper showing 13 examples of GPT-5 accelerating scientific research across math, physics, biology, and materials science. In 4 of these examples, GPT-5 helped find proofs of previously unsolved problems. Our aim is to be measured, yet optimistic. We show, with specific examples, what GPT-5 can and cannot do today, and give a clear path for how researchers can use it to accelerate scientific discovery while keeping standards high. We believe GPT-5 already provides substantial value for scientific researchers today, and will become an even more powerful tool tomorrow.

✨ GPT-5 crossed a major threshold: over the last two months, we’ve heard repeated examples of scientists successfully directing GPT-5 to do novel research in math, physics, biology, CS, and more.

If you have an example to share, please reply below! Prizes for the best ones 🧵👇 To see what I mean by GPT-5 being directed to do novel research, see my original OpenAI for Science tweet thread here:

💥 I’m starting something new inside OpenAI! It’s called OpenAI for Science, and the goal is to build the next great scientific instrument: an AI-powered platform that accelerates scientific discovery. We’ll look to hire a small team of academics that are (i) world-class in their field; (ii) completely AI-pilled; and (iii) great science communicators. Paired with a small team of researchers, we want to prove that AI models are ready to accelerate fundamental science—and accelerate research all over the world.

1/ Hello from @planet Explore, our annual customer + partner conference. @Will4Planet and I just finished our keynotes (with a fireside from @BradSmi in between) and we had a lot to announce—including some next-gen AI/GPT demos w/ @Microsoft. Wait for the last tweet for more 👇 2/ Speaking of AI, remember how our partner @Synthetaic used Planet data to track the Chinese spy balloon back across the US and Canada to its launch in the South China Sea? We talked about the power of our 2400-day archive of the Earth. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

So excited to share what I've been working on for the last year! It's been the most challenging, interesting, and inspiring thing I've ever been a part of. Today is not a launch, but an announcement, and an invitation for the community to participate. The core problem we're trying to address is the lack of progress in financial services for the people who need it most. The internet has changed the way we communicate and access information. Why hasn't it done the same for money?
