OpenAI reportedly closes in on solving the Hodge conjecture, its second Millennium Prize Problem
OpenAI is reportedly tackling the next Millennium Prize Problem. After its still unconfirmed solution to the Navier-Stokes problem, the company is now working on the Hodge conjecture. Employees expect a solution soon, but any announcement could be delayed. After the PR crisis around Navier-Stokes, OpenAI wants to get the messaging right this time. The article OpenAI reportedly closes in on solving the Hodge conjecture, its second Millennium Prize Problem appeared first on The Decoder .
What happened
OpenAI is reportedly closing in on a solution to the Hodge conjecture, one of mathematics' seven Millennium Prize Problems, according to The Decoder. This follows an earlier, still-unconfirmed claim that the company's models had cracked the Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness problem, another entry on the same list.
