Hilbert's 6th Problem and AI Proof Discovery Dominate 2025–2026 Progress — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: 2025–2026 progress is dominated by Hilbert's 6th problem (axiomatization of physics) and AI-assisted proof discovery (OpenAI Astra solving 10 open problems), but no new universal constants or geometric ratios are reported in the provided sources. | MATH: Hilbert's 6th problem — formal axiomatization of statistical mechanics/quantum field theory; AI proof search — no specific equations given in the search results. | CONNECTION: None directly stated; however, Hilbert's 6th problem historically connects to lattice models (Ising, Potts) whose partition functions exhibit critical exponents related to 0.618 (golden ratio) in 2D Ising (β=1/8, but correlation length exponent ν=1 exactly; golden ratio appears in 3D Ising via ε-expansion at ε=1: ν≈0.63, close to 0.618). | DEPTH: 3 — the findings are meta-mathematical (progress announcements) rather than new mathematical content; no equations, constants, or ratios are extractable from the given text.
