Debating OpenAI model's fluid dynamics result and a path to unforced 3D Euler
JacquesThibs · x · 2026-09-24
- A thread debates the mathematical capability limits of OpenAI's frontier research models: the private hypodissipative result apparently suggested a path toward an unforced 3D Euler solution, which could substantially narrow the search space.
- The author notes a 2024 paper seemed to offer partial evidence but wasn't cited in the write-up, and pushes back on naive claims that model swarms can't overcome this, given the compute OpenAI threw at the problem.
- The author buys that models are underelicited and that swarms plus inference compute can go much further than the ChatGPT era suggested.
