AI System

OpenAI claims a breakthrough in solving the 90-year-old Navier-Stokes equations using an AI system of 10,000 agents, completing the task in 88 hours. This significant achievement, if verified, could address one of the Millennium Prize Problems. However, the claim faces scrutiny from the academic community, with concerns raised about potential access to unpublished research and the methodology employed. OpenAI denies using specific user data but acknowledges potential de-identified data contributions. The Clay Mathematics Institute has not yet commented.
