Maxwell Conjecture Disproven, New Solver Credited

The Maxwell conjecture has been shown to be false, according to a report on Hacker News referencing a solution labeled GPT 5.6 Sol. The disproof overturns a previously open assumption and highlights the growing role of automated or AI-assisted problem-solving in mathematics. This result may have implications for the field and for future use of such solvers.
