Erdős problem 873

Let A={a1<a2<… }⊆NA = \{a_1 < a_2 < \dots\} \subseteq \mathbb{N} and let F(A,X,k)F(A,X,k) count the number of ii such that [ai,ai+1,…,ai+k−1]<X[a_i,a_{i+1}, \dots ,a_{i+k−1}] < X, where the left-hand side is the least common multiple. Is it true that, for every ϵ>0\epsilon > 0, there exists some kk such that F(A,X,k)<XϵF(A,X,k) < X^\epsilon?
