We’re launching a competition to establish rigorous human performance baselines for FrontierMath, our benchmark for evaluating AI mathematical capabilities. The results will provide crucial reference points for measuring AI progress in tackling very difficult mathematics problems.

Competition Overview

  • Location: Cambridge, Massachusetts
  • Timing: Early 2025 (February/March)
  • Format: 3-4 hours solving novel mathematics problems alongside leading mathematicians
  • Prize pool: >$30,000 distributed across top performers
  • Recognition: Participants acknowledged in FrontierMath baseline publication

Why Participate

This competition offers a unique opportunity to contribute to AI progress measurement while competing for substantial prizes. Results will directly inform our understanding of AI capabilities by providing clear human performance benchmarks.
