Turning OpenAI's 166-Page Navier–Stokes Construction Into an Animation With GPT-6

Using GPT-6 Astra in Codex, a Reddit user unpacked OpenAI's 166-page Navier–Stokes paper, reconstructed the local flow, and rendered it as an animation: flow spiraling inward while stretching along the axis, a snapshot of the velocity field. It's a local reconstruction, not the full solution, but the visualization (interactive at jaime.cc/navierstokes) makes the mechanism far easier to grasp.
