That doesn’t change the fact that llm’s are capable of acing math olympiads. So what if it uses tools? You probably would too. I doubt anybody there did it without a calculator.
Aren’t you the least bit curious what tools they gave the LLM and how the LLM used those tools? It’s like back in math class you are asked to solve a quadratic formula but you forgot how. So you use the calculator to try different numbers and the calculator is telling you if you are getting closer. Sure I got the right answer, but it’s hardly a testament to my math skills.
