OpenAI claims thousands of AI agents solved a major math problem amid controversy

OpenAI announced that an unreleased model using around 10,000 automated agents solved the Navier-Stokes fluid dynamics problem in roughly 88 hours. The system produced a proof showing fluid velocity can become infinite in finite time, which was then formally verified. Researchers from NYU and Anthropic raised questions about whether OpenAI relied on undisclosed leaks of their existing work, which OpenAI denies.
