OpenAI officially denies accessing unpublished work before solving Navier-Stokes with 10,000 agents
zedlander · x · 2026-09-09
Following accusations that OpenAI's 10,000-agent Navier-Stokes solution may have drawn on unpublished third-party work, an official denial was issued: "We (the researchers and the agents) did not see any of their work through any means until they released it publicly — in particular, no specific user data was accessed in order to solve this problem."
This is the key official response in an escalating research-priority controversy worth tracking.
