Independent mathematicians present GPT-6 Astra proof of the Erdős–Sós conjecture
Oliver Riordan and Alex Scott state that the Erdős–Sós conjecture was recently proved by GPT-6 Astra using a surprising argument and publish a simplified version, also determining extremal graphs and proving a related conjecture. David R. Wood separately publishes an exposition of the proof, likewise attributing its discovery to GPT-6 Astra. The multiple expert rewrites provide unusually strong independent validation of the AI-origin claim.

ChatGPT 6 Astra supplies key strategies resolving 2D Le simplex conjecture
Chong Gu proves that triangles minimize the Monge–Ampère eigenvalue among bounded planar convex domains of fixed area, resolving the two-dimensional case of Le's simplex conjecture. The author states that the main results were obtained through a series of chats with ChatGPT 6 Astra and that the key strategies came from the model, after which he reworked and rewrote the article.

Google releases Gemini 3.8 Live and Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking
Google released Gemini 3.8 Live and Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking for near-real-time multimodal voice agents. The models support background tool/API calls while conversation continues, visual grounding and, for Extended Thinking, simultaneous reasoning and speech. Artificial Analysis independently lists Gemini 3.8 Live Extended Thinking at 82.6 on its Speech-to-Speech Index and 68.6% on τ-Voice, while Gemini 3.8 Live scores 76.0 on the same aggregate index.

ChatGPT 5.6 Sol-assisted work resolves cluster-deletion complexity question
Nicola Galesi, Tony Huynh, Arnaud Patey and Fariba Ranjbar prove Cluster Deletion is NP-complete on permutation graphs, answering an open question of Konstantinidis and Papadopoulos. The authors state that Patey found the proof with help from ChatGPT 5.6 Sol; the model-generated proof contained errors and was completely rewritten by the authors.

Readiness and forecast
No automatic movement. Historical reconstruction restores evidence to the correct period but is not itself a calibration event. Genuine future score changes must pass the normal evidence and policy gates.
BOTTOM LINE: Historical recovery: 4 canonical events now fall inside this original Daily window. Highest-impact signal: Independent mathematicians present GPT-6 Astra proof of the Erdős–Sós conjecture (Impact 9.9/10). The Pulse has been rebuilt from the canonical ledger; Readiness remains 59.03 (0.00), Singularity Readiness 53.19 (0.00), and the 5Y/10Y ASI forecast remains 30%/81%.
