Terence Tao warns that valuable open problems are being mined in a non-renewable way, creating a risk that they will become scarce. Even rumors that someone is working on a problem can trigger massive AI-powered efforts to solve it, potentially discouraging researchers from sharing promising work.
OpenAI reportedly used an unreleased model to produce a solution to the Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness problem, one of the seven Millennium Prize Problems carrying a one-million-dollar prize. The discovery was partly overshadowed by accusations of skulduggery from Tristan Buckmaster, an NYU mathematics professor who was collaborating on the problem with Levent Alpöge.
The title reports that some Chinese AI companies are conducting distillation campaigns targeting U.S. AI companies. The article may focus on collecting or using AI system outputs to support model development.

OpenAI says its image-generation models have been used to create more than 3 billion images across ChatGPT Images and the GPT-Image models in the API. The new release improves multi-turn instruction following, responds faster, and better preserves subjects from reference photos. The API adds two model IDs, gpt-image-2.5-sunburst and gpt-image-2.5-flare; the author considers Sunburst the stronger option.
Security experts are releasing patches ahead of an expected wave of AI-assisted attacks. Microsoft’s patch release this month is notable for its scale and timing.
Last month, a Claude user noticed that their account was consuming tokens despite being inactive. Anthropic has since warned users about hackers.
Cognition has reached a $48 billion valuation. This suggests investors believe the AI coding market still has room for multiple major players rather than being winner-take-all. Cognition’s valuation multiple is higher than Cursor’s was before Cursor was sold to SpaceX.
The headline suggests that AI is mining open problems in mathematics in a way that consumes or depletes a non-renewable resource. No further details are provided about the mechanism or specific impact.
OpenAI says it has found a solution to the major Navier-Stokes mathematical problem, which has remained unsolved for around 90 years. The claim was previously reported by The New York Times and Wired, and the problem concerns the flow of liquids.
OpenAI announced ChatGPT Images 2.5 and introduced Sketch, a new feature in ChatGPT. Users can draw a rough sketch directly in ChatGPT and then describe how they want it turned into an image.
The headline says OpenAI allegedly used unfair tactics involving a mathematics problem that could have major career significance. The article appears to focus on a dispute over how OpenAI handled or competed around the problem.

An update to Google’s AI weather model improves forecast accuracy. Like traditional weather models, it benefits from a broader set of inputs.
TANGO is a whole-body navigation framework for humanoid robots that uses language instructions and egocentric visual observations to predict 29-DoF joint-space actions. It is trained entirely in simulation using collision-free traversal behaviors generated through path planning, whole-body motion generation, obstacle-aware editing, and reinforcement learning. TANGO achieves state-of-the-art simulated vision-language navigation and is deployed zero-shot on a Unitree G1 robot for traversal in cluttered real-world scenes.
The study argues that vanishing or exploding gradients alone do not determine whether recurrent models fail beyond their training horizon. It proposes Credit Stabilization through Time, which locally rescales the signal assigning future losses to earlier recurrent states while leaving the forward computation unchanged. The method improves performance beyond the training length, with gains observed at up to 128 times the training horizon.
