DeepMind's Gemini Earns Official IMO Gold as OpenAI Awaits Confirmation

SUNSHINE COAST, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA, JUL 22 – OpenAI and Google DeepMind AI models solved five of six problems at the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad, scoring 35 out of 42 points and surpassing last year's silver medal performance.

  • OpenAI announced on July 19, 2025, that its experimental model achieved gold medal performance at the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad .
  • The model’s success follows years of AI advancement with general-purpose reasoning approaches rather than highly specialized domain models for math problems.
  • The model successfully solved five out of six IMO problems, scoring 35 out of 42 points within the 4.5-hour time limit, which corresponds to a gold medal performance ranking it within the highest tier of participants globally.
  • OpenAI described the model as an "experimental reasoning LLM" built on new research techniques, and cautioned it will not release this model for many months despite announcing GPT-5 soon.
  • This milestone suggests scalable general-purpose AI can rival top human mathematicians and may accelerate AI contributions to scientific discovery in the future.
