This is the introduction to an episode covering OpenAI's claimed solution to the Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness problem, one of the Millennium Prize problems. The hosts, Lester Nari and Krishna Choudhary, outline their plan to first build up the underlying mathematics from scratch before addressing the controversy and disputes over credit that followed the announcement.

0:34>> Hello internet. This is your captain speaking Lester Nar joined as always by my co-host and our resident PhD Krishna Chowdery. We are about to get into what will be our most requested episode in the history of from first principles. Open AAI announced a solution to one of the millennium problems. Many of you have either seen that announcement or all of the fallout and drama as it relates to AI that has arisen since that announcement. And so, a quick overview of how we're going to structure this deep dive episode. We'll be lucky to get it under 3 hours. So, we're going to do
1:15something a little bit different than some of the mainstream coverage that starts with the drama. First, we're going to ground ourselves in the fundamental understanding of the mathematics as it relates to the OpenAI solution. What are the Navier Stokes equations and what is the existence and smoothness problem and how exactly did they solve it? And then we will obviously move into some of the drama and tragedy that has arisen as a result of this and other progression in AI over the summer into the early fall. This is going to be a nuanced episode. We're going to talk about the science and some of the larger complexities. If you want to understand science
