3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Will OpenAI announce another Millennium Prize solution by December 31, 2026? — the market puts it at 13%, with $26k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if OpenAI or an official representative announces that it has fully solved one of the five specified Millennium Prize Problems by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. The announcement must explicitly state that the problem is solved and credit OpenAI as the solver; partial results, progress reports, or announcements crediting only outside researchers do not count.
  • Will OpenAI have the best AI model at the end of October 2026? — the market puts it at 1%, with $13k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 31 Oct 2026. The market resolves by checking the arena.ai Text Arena leaderboard on October 31, 2026, at 12:00 PM ET. OpenAI wins if its model holds the highest rank among eligible models at that specific time and source. Readers often mistake the check date for the end of the month or overlook that auto-evaluated models are excluded from the ranking.
  • Before Jan 1, 2027 — the market puts it at 21%, with $3k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if OpenAI or its direct collaborators announce a complete solution to one of the five specified Millennium Prize Problems before January 1, 2027. It resolves to No if no such announcement occurs by that date. Readers often mistake the linked news story about math papers as sufficient for resolution, but only an official announcement of a complete solution counts.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
