This is going around due to rumors and baseless speculation on Twitter [1] right now that Anthropic has solved the Millennium problem related to Navier-Stokes [2]
For a second I thought they were aiming the scary proof machine at us mortals doing PDE stuff. Fortunately the speculation is just that they happen to be aiming it at a nearby mathematician type problem. Phew.
Lol as far as I know that post was the origin of that claim and it's clearly just a guy predicting something that will happen in the future with no information about it.
It’s pretty crazy what dynamics you get from NS.. until one realise they emerge from a tiny part of the solution space of Einstein equations.. which themselves emerge at the low energy limit of sth much bigger.
This is essentially irrelevant to the content of the post, but it's amusing to me that he casually mentions submitting to JAMS as if its acceptance were a mere formality.
Interesting to see that they are not using the coordinate-free representation (exterior calculus, differential forms) that mathematical physicists prefer to use today.

If it is solved what are the applications of that? What changes?
See https://www.quantamagazine.org/theory-of-fluids-enters-the-2... if you want to know what the Navier Stokes equations are about.
@dang please can we add a [2014] to the title ?
Yes please. For a moment I thought Terrence Tao had scooped Anthropic.
