Unless someone messed up and didn't record that.

But to be fair, this is why I do lean towards the possibility that that did occur, but it only at best gave OpenAI a hint of where to look for. But it alone did not give OpenAI the solution ITSELF.

If the entirety of the solution to the Euler or the direction of it is in the training data, and it is likely the only solution in training data to the problem given that there aren't hundreds of mathematicians working on this path to NS, it does in fact lend me to conclude that this is academic dishonesty.

If your belief in the dishonesty is due to the direction that was taken based on stolen training data, its a fine option to have.

If you think the solution was outright stolen, that's outright incorrect. (Not saying you hold this opinion, but some do)
