- New Scientist reports OpenAI announced its AI agents have answered the Navier-Stokes blow-up question, one of the $1M Millennium Prize Problems: the equations do sometimes blow up.
- The result doesn't mean real fluids misbehave, but shows the equations aren't perfect — and mathematics may never be the same.
- The piece also weighs AI's double-edged impact on math, citing Terence Tao's criticism that AI companies are harming mathematics.
