How a swarm of 10,000 agents solved Navier-Stokes
What was said
"There’s one thing I want to make clear. The effort to solve a Millennium Prize Problem, this was not due to multi-agent. I wouldn’t even attribute 10% of the credit to multi-agent."
Noam Brown says OpenAI’s effort discussed as tackling a Millennium Prize Problem linked to Navier–Stokes should not be credited mainly to multi-agent orchestration. He argues the key factor was a general-purpose, very strong model, with multi-agent methods getting outsized attention because they are newer and more visible.
