OpenAI solves the irrational triangular billiards problem

OpenAI reported solving the irrational triangular billiards problem, which describes how light rays reflect inside triangular mirrors. The company also cited progress on conformal transformations and hinted at advances toward the Navier-Stokes equations.

• AI showed rays distribute evenly over time under specific conditions
• The problem had eluded mathematicians for decades
• AI-generated proofs are hard to verify and lack elegance
• Progress hinted at the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize problem
