Mathematicians' row over OpenAI claim fuels doubts about AI in science

OpenAI recently said its AI agents solved a famous open problem linked to the Navier-Stokes equations in 88 hours. The body running a prize for it said the problem had 'apparently been settled', but review would take time. Hours before the announcement, NYU mathematician Tristan Buckmaster had raised concerns, adding to questions over the reliability of AI-driven discoveries.
