OpenAI's advanced AI model solved a Millennium Prize Problem by proving that Navier–Stokes equations can produce singularities, revealing limits in modeling fluid flow at molecular scales. This breakthrough highlights where classical fluid dynamics equations fail, particularly when fluid vortices become extremely thin, challenging assumptions of fluid continuity.
