OpenAI announced a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem—whether smooth 3D fluid motion breaks down—unresolved for 90 years. The proof was produced by a group of agents using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. Former OpenAI researcher Jeff Clune says the team's go-to AGI test was 'ask it to solve a Millennium Prize,' calling this the first light of an AI-driven scientific revolution.
