The algorithm from OpenAI works also in prime-order finite fields. Such FFTs are used all over the place in cryptography. So clearly their result is not useless and works in a realistic computational model

Huh, I wasn't aware; I haven't looked into the construction, I was just taking the blog posts claims for granted. Does it extend to all finite fields, that'd be super cool if so.
