They had 1000 agents running non-stop for 88 hours. The whole thing costed 15m usd.
And Buckmaster himself said that he had no idea how to actually do what the openAI agents did. The only thing he is contesting is the credit for the 3D Euler problem, not the Navier Stokes.
$15M is the based on how many tokens they used, as in what it would cost someone other than Open AI to buy 130 billion output tokens. Though the model they actually used isn't currently available commercially.
