"Breakthrough" to me would be like Isaac Newton inventing calculus to calculate pi. This feels more like $12MM in tokens was spent to add another digit to pi using the old way.
I'm not sure if you meant it this way, but this is more an insult directed at mathematics, not openAI.
Yeah solving a Millennium Problem is totally equivalent to calculating another digit of pi.
Inventing calculus to calculate pi? I don't think that ever happened...
