How a swarm of 10,000 agents solved Navier-Stokes

What was said

"We have a situation where we have a very powerful model internally that is currently not available to the outside world, that is able to solve incredible math problems. It’s not just Millennium Prize Problems. There are many solutions to unsolved problems that people have been able to get out of this model."

Noam Brown says OpenAI has a powerful internal model that is not publicly available and can solve “incredible” maths problems. He claims people have obtained many solutions to unsolved problems from it, and warns that slower releases could widen capability gaps between labs and the public.
