Harvard mathematicians split over OpenAI math breakthrough

After OpenAI said it solved the roughly 90-year-old Navier-Stokes problem, Harvard mathematicians disagreed: some worry AI proofs lack citations and explanations and are hard to evaluate, while others say accuracy matters more than origin. A September-formed advisory group on math and AI aims to guide how AI research is released.
