OpenAI announced that its artificial intelligence model managed to solve the Navier-Stokes equation in just 88 hours. This equation was developed by two mathematicians in the 19th century and is widely used in areas such as meteorology and aeronautics.
Mathematicians Tristan Buckmaster and Levent Alpöge expressed suspicions regarding the solution presented by OpenAI. According to the researchers, work developed by both of them may have influenced the resolution found by the artificial intelligence model.
The situation raised questions about plagiarism and about how AI models can use existing research without due recognition. The scientific community awaits further developments on this matter.
