ETH conjecture disproved by OpenAI AND Anthropic on the same day?!
Dr. Samuel Allen Alexander, a mathematician and philosopher, reviewed two papers that challenge the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH). OpenAI's paper is titled "THE EXPONENTIAL TIME HYPOTHESIS IS FALSE," while Anthropic's contribution is "A 2^o(n) TIME ALGORITHM FOR 3-SAT." Both papers, released on the same day, suggest a potential disproof of the ETH conjecture, as discussed and commentated by Dr. Alexander.
