Commentator: Navier-Stokes solved by agent swarm on human mathematicians' work, frontier will accelerate
basedjensen · x · 2026-09-09
Weighing in on the Navier-Stokes controversy, X user basedjensen argued that regardless of opinions on the proof's derivation, a swarm of agents building on human work — crediting not just Levent et al. but also Spanish mathematicians who deserve accolades — has solved NS, marking the moment AI starts pushing the frontier of human knowledge, a process he expects to accelerate.
