OpenAI claims Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize solution via agent swarm on next-gen model beyond GPT-6 Astra

OpenAI announced a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem — whether smooth 3D fluid motion can break down, unresolved for 90 years. The proof was produced by a group of coordinating agents running an OpenAI next-generation model described as significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The claim immediately drew skepticism from mathematicians.
