Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, by the end of the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) 2025, Google DeepMind publicly announces that its AI system has successfully solved Problem 6 (P6) of the competition. Official confirmation from DeepMind or reputable news sources will serve as the basis for resolution.

Background

Problem 6 (P6) at the IMO is traditionally the most challenging problem, often requiring deep insight and advanced problem-solving skills. In previous years, DeepMind's AI systems have demonstrated significant progress in solving IMO problems. For instance, in 2024, their AI achieved a silver medal standard by solving four out of six problems, including the most difficult one, which only five human competitors managed to solve.

Considerations

While DeepMind's AI has shown remarkable capabilities, solving P6 remains a formidable challenge. The outcome will depend on the AI's continued advancements and its ability to tackle the complexities inherent in IMO's most demanding problems.

  • Update 2025-07-20 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The creator has clarified that the market will resolve based on whether DeepMind's AI successfully solved P6, regardless of when the public announcement is made.

  • Update 2025-07-21 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The market will resolve based on whether DeepMind's AI successfully solved P6, regardless of when the public announcement is made.

  • Update 2025-07-21 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): The resolution will consider if any of Google DeepMind's AI models solved P6, not just a single model like Gemini.

actually, resolving this to No. if they come out with a different model in a week that had solved P6, I’ll re-resolve.

GDM says Gemini got gold but not P6. I’m still waiting, as it could be the case that they also had some different models that solved P6.

More on timing:

What if they announce a week after the IMO? I am somewhat worried that for whatever reason Google once again does weird marketing and waits longer than until the official end of the IMO (<50% worried, but this makes it annoying to disentangle my betting odds in a low liquidity market).

@Joern the default is that they should wait for a week until after IMO due to being asked by the IMO organizers. I don’t care when the announcement is made; I care about the results.

@ms This sort of thing really reinforces my belief that it would be terrible for the world if OpenAI wins the AI race. How is their AI supposed to be aligned with human values if OpenAI itself is woefully not!

@AverageFoxEnthusiast note that they’re claiming they weren’t aware.
