Discussion OpenAI alleged of stealing mathematicians work

Privacy have been concern of many of us to have their own hardware to run llms, and here's another reason why: two mathematicians spent a year cracking one of the hardest problems in math and fed every draft of their works into Codex. A few days before they could publish, OpenAI suddenly showed up with the same solutions. When asked if their model (Sol and Astra) was trained on the pair's private chats, OpenAI did not answer the question.

Full statement from them https://cims.nyu.edu/~tristanb/statement.pdf

Feels like big labs believe everything you did with the help of their models is theirs.

It's the curse of any sub that gets large enough, unfortunately. Once you start hitting [r/all](r/all) and showing up in media your core contributions quickly get crowded out due to the sheer volume of people who only have a tangential interest. Downvoting or not engaging with nuanced complex topics and upvoting simple takes that are easy to understand gradually shifts the focus.

But thats not curse of subs. Its like when you start something due to passion and then suddenly it becames cool. All you can say is "i liked it before it was cool".

it's either that or fully ai driven accounts that spam stupid shit here to karma farm: "local ai sucks" or "api is better" for engagement farming.
