Error found in OpenAI's Navier-Stokes proof claim

Original: openai navier stokes proof error

OpenAI released a batch of 722 new research papers, among them work claiming progress on a proof related to the Navier-Stokes equations, one of mathematics' most famous unsolved problems. Attention has since focused on an error identified in that proof, prompting debate about the reliability of AI-assisted mathematical discovery and how the results should be verified.

Why now: People are scrutinising OpenAI's unusually large release of papers after an error surfaced in a claimed Navier-Stokes proof, raising questions about AI-generated mathematics.
