🤖 OpenAI Math Claim Draws Scrutiny

The reported result involved an internal model more capable than GPT-6 Astra, solving the Navier-Stokes problem with 10,000 parallel agents. In September, OpenAI said it would not claim the result. The problem is one of 7 Millennium Prize Problems, carrying a $1M prize.

1 day later, NYU professor Tristan Buckmaster and Anthropic researcher Levent Alpoge published work on a related problem using Codex and Claude. Buckmaster says OpenAI followed the same route.

The dispute concerns training data and quiet edits to published papers. OpenAI denies using specific user data but says anonymized data may have improved its models.
