# OpenAI’s 722 Math Papers: Three Retracted in 24 Hours > Source: > Published: 2026-10-08 14:09:25+00:00 OpenAI published 722 AI-generated math manuscripts on October 6, crediting an internal model nobody outside the company can access. By the next morning, three papers were pulled. A sign error in one algebraic geometry proof had quietly cascaded into two dependent manuscripts, taking them down with it. Fourteen more papers were revised the same day. The math community had spent less than 24 hours with the release before cracks appeared. What Broke and Why The error originated in a paper titled “Algebraicity of Weil classes on split abelian eightfolds.” A flaw in the stabilization-trace cancellation argument invalidated the proof — […] The post
