We’ve collected 22 million algebra yes/no questions. Your task is to design a “cheat sheet”—a highly optimized prompt—that can be given to a weak, open-source model to drastically improve its accuracy.

On behalf of the SAIR Foundation, our co-founder Terence Tao is thrilled to announce our inaugural competition: the Mathematics Distillation Challenge.

Mathematics is about more than just finding the right answers; it’s about understanding the process. While frontier AI models can solve complex problems with 95% accuracy, weaker open-source models often perform no better than random chance (50%). We want to bridge that gap.
