One prediction market prices this story:

  • Will OpenAI announce another Millennium Prize solution by September 30, 2026? — resolved “No” on 1 Oct 2026. The market resolves to "Yes" if OpenAI or an official representative announces that it has solved one of the five specified Millennium Prize Problems by September 30, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. The announcement must explicitly state that the problem is solved and credit OpenAI as the solver; reports of progress, partial results, or solutions credited to outside researchers do not count.

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.
