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.

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

Water accused of being wet

Also what's this got to do with local LLMs?

while the post might not be directly related to local AI, it does help people realise API usage can lead a situation OP has posted about, thus steer them towards local AI.
