OpenAI Cracks 90-Year-Old Maths Problem
OpenAI may have cracked one of the most famous unsolved problems in mathematics.
In this episode of Mark & Pete, we look at the extraordinary claim that an OpenAI research system has solved a 90-year-old problem connected to the Navier–Stokes equations, the equations used to describe how fluids move.
That means water, air, blood flow, turbulence, weather systems, aircraft, oceans and quite a lot of the physical world around us.
The Navier–Stokes equations themselves are not new. Mathematicians and engineers have used them for generations. The problem was something much deeper: nobody knew…
