Reacting to OpenAI's technical disclosure of the Navier–Stokes proof, peterwildeford marvels that a model trained for only 11 days was useful on a Millennium Problem.

Details from OpenAI: a system of coordinating agents powered by their internal model, with access to a cached internet snapshot and code execution; agents were subdivided into communicating groups of varying sizes, and the group producing the Navier–Stokes resolution involved on the order of 10,000 agents.
