OpenAI Claims Its Agents Produced a Proof of the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem

OpenAI announced that a group of agents, running on a next-generation model it says is significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra, produced a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem — the question of whether smooth 3D fluid motion described by the equations can break down. If verified by mathematicians, it would mark the first time AI cracked a human-frontier Millennium Prize problem, though the claim instantly drew both awe and skepticism from the AI community.
