Artificial intelligence has shaken up the world of mathematics after an OpenAI model solved a problem related to the Navier-Stokes equations, formulated in 1845, in less than four days. The solution has sparked discussions about the future role of mathematicians in scientific research, AFP reports, BTA reports. “I am completely shaken by an existential crisis in my professional field,” Terence Tao, a 2006 Fields Medal winner and one of the worl…
“If I’ve seen further it’s because I’m up on the shoulders of giants.” Isaac Newton, letter to Robert Hooke, 1675 On September 8, OpenAI announced a result on one of the world’s most famous mathematical problems, that of Navier-Stokes. Twelve hours earlier, a professor at the University of New York had told [...] The entry The Millennium Problem: AI also rides giants’ shoulders was first published in Retina.
The Guardian view on AI v mathematicians: humans are still vital to the field, but tech firms refuse to see that
OpenAI claims its agents have solved the Navier-Stokes problem. But questions remain about how useful and independent its work really is On 8 September, OpenAI claimed that its AI agents had solved the Navier-Stokes problem, one of the most famous and difficult challenges in mathematics. Had a…
On September 8, 2026, the OpenAI company announced in its X account a solution to the Navier-Stokes equations, one of the seven “mathematical problems of the millennium”, whose resolution would be awarded by the Clay Mathematicas Institute with the sum of one million dollars. To achieve this, OpenAI employed about 10,000 agents [...] The article Has OpenAI really solved the “mathematic problem of the millennium” of Navier-Stokes? has been writte…
