OpenAI announced that an internal AI model, described as more powerful than the newly released GPT-6 Astra and run alongside 10,000 concurrent agents, produced a solution to the Navier-Stokes problem — unsolved for roughly 90 years and one of the seven $1M Millennium Prize Problems. Training reportedly began August 28. Earlier reports from NYT and Wired preceded the blog post, and drama is swirling around the claim.
