AI Claims First Millennium Prize: Navier-Stokes Falls, OpenAI Model Leaps in Math
TheZvi · x · 2026-09-14
Zvi writes that the first Millennium Prize problem, Navier-Stokes, has reportedly fallen to AI, though the situation around it is messier than a clean success story. @TheStalwart highlights the real story: OpenAI apparently trained a model in under two weeks that is a step change above Astra, at least on math capability. Details in Zvi's full article.
