The goal is to measure how well these models handle abstract thinking and structured problem-solving. What does day-to-day look like? You’ll create math problems, review how the AI solves them, and share insights on how well it understands complex reasoning and logical steps. You’ll take on tasks such as: Find the number of permutations of 10 elements that consist only of exactly 3 disjoint cycles. How many distinct convex polyhedra can be formed using exactly 10 vertices such that all faces are triangles and the polyhedron has genus zero?
