It's possible but unlikely given the short timeline, diverse questions that require multiple matheamticians, and low stakes. Also they've already run preliminary tests.

> It's possible but unlikely given the short timeline

Yep. "possible but unlikely" was my take too. As another person commented, this isn't really a benchmark, and as long as that's clear, it seems fair. My only fear is that some submissions may be AI-assisted rather than fully AI-generated, with crucial insights coming from experienced mathematicians. That's still a real achievement even if it's human + AI collaboration. But I fear that the nuance would be lost on news media and they'll publish news about the dawn of fully autonomous math reasoning.
