GPT-5 with scaffolding or access to tools counts as long as GPT-5 is making real decisions.
Resolves No if GPT-5 doesn’t score Bronze or higher, or if it does not does not exist by then, or nobody makes an IMO attempt by the end of August 2025
Update 2025-03-01 (PST): - o3 or future o series models do not count as GPT-5 for this question. Models called GPT-4x would not count. If OpenAI abandons the GPT-X naming scheme and comes out with a new flagship model to replace GPT-4 that's not part of the o series, that counts.
1,000
3.00@qumeric the people i've seen claiming this have been "kinda cheating", eg giving the model hints as to what direction to attempt to solve the problem from. if you know cases not like that i'd be curious to see them. others just take much more than 4.5 hours per set of 3 problems

@ahalekelly If gpt5 can use reasoning models like it uses search or other features, so you can get it to solve the imo through o3, does it count?
Yeah that sounds reasonable
