Did OpenAI Steal the Navier-Stokes Solution? | E2335
Jason and Lon unpack a chaotic week at the AI frontier: an Anthropic researcher quits publicly warning of existential risk, his colleague estimates >10% odds of catastrophe within a decade, and the panel debates whether this is honest alarm or a deliberate PR strategy to entrench regulatory capture. The conversation turns to Meta's new personal AI agent Muse, its trust problem, and Threads' engagement metrics. Then the team digs into NYU mathematician Tristan Buckmaster's accusation that OpenAI fought dirty on a Navier-Stokes benchmark problem, and Jason warns founders never to hand proprietary data to frontier labs for free credits. The episode closes with Harvey going open-weight, the on-prem AI push from Go.AI and Covenant Labs, and a look at high-performing portfolio companies.
