Sam Altman compares the wonder of his child's first two-word sentence to GPT-5.6 discovering new math
Story Overview
Sam Altman posted that his older child's first two-word sentence left him roughly as astonished as GPT-5.6's reported discovery of new math, turning a private family moment into public conversation about how far current models have come.
The post triggered fast speculation online
Replies and quotes quickly mixed warm notes on toddler milestones with guesses about an imminent GPT-5.6 announcement, even though the limited preview had already started weeks earlier.
The math claim stays loosely tied to the model
The referenced breakthrough on the Erdős conjecture came from an internal reasoning system in May, so whether GPT-5.6 itself produced it remains unconfirmed in available details.

I'm seeing... that GPT-5.6 has made another novel math discovery, they are saving it for the release.

@sama Your chat gbt5.6 didn’t discover anything novel so far…don’t get me wrong, it’s still AMAZING

@sama Good job your president isn’t restricting the cognitive feat of your children to only ones from certain parents.
My kids are like open source models. You tell them again and again, and they are not listening to you 😆
