Aletheia solves six FirstProof problems

Google DeepMind’s Aletheia, a mathematics research agent powered by Gemini 3 Deep Think, autonomously solved 6 of 10 open problems in the inaugural FirstProof challenge according to majority expert assessments. The paper and public repo push the story beyond Olympiad-style benchmark wins toward long-horizon theorem proving on live research problems.

// ANALYSIS

Aletheia is one of the strongest signs yet that reasoning agents are starting to matter for real research, not just polished benchmark demos.

–FirstProof is framed as an open-problem challenge, so solving 6 of 10 problems is a much stronger signal than another closed-form math benchmark result
–DeepMind says Aletheia iteratively generates, verifies, and revises proofs, and can admit failure instead of forcing brittle answers
–The result still deserves careful scrutiny: the paper notes experts were not unanimous on Problem 8, which makes transparency and replication important
–The GitHub release includes prompts, outputs, and FirstProof artifacts, giving researchers something concrete to inspect instead of just a headline claim
