I think it's generally a good thing that OpenAI is noticing when their projects are harming human communities, and deciding to respect their norms, especially when their math discoveries do not have immediate application and build on the thousands of years of that community's work.

> do not have immediate application

How do you know? Seems statistically unlikely with 720 problems, most of them well known

		I don't! But there is no such qualifier in the announcement. Perhaps OpenAI ought to filter for the problems that have immediate applications, and leave those that are unclear for humans.

> harming human communities

Said communities are doing that all on their own by caring about what AI is doing rather than just focusing on their own thing as they did before AI. It's a serious kind of envy IMO.
