OpenAI says it did not see Levent Alpöge and Tristan Buckmaster’s work before its public release, but cannot rule out that de-identified data from their product use helped improve its models—a possibility it calls unlikely.
OpenAI says a group of agents produced a proof for the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem using a next-generation model it describes as significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. It describes the problem as asking whether the mathematical description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion can break down. OpenAI also congratulated Levent Alpöge and Tristan Buckmaster on their mathematical work, saying neither its researchers nor its agents saw their work before it became public. The company says no specific user data was accessed to solve the problem. It cannot rule out that de-identified data from their product usage helped improve its models, though it calls that unlikely. OpenAI says its proofs differ significantly from theirs, with different results in the Euler case—forced versus unforced.

OpenAI@OpenAIWe’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics. The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra. The problem…
OpenAI@OpenAIWe congratulate Levent Alpöge and Tristan Buckmaster on their remarkable mathematical work. We (the researchers and the agents) did not see any of their work through any means until they released it publicly — in particular, no specific user data was accessed in order to solve…
