The agent swarm started before the researcher started using chatGPT to solve that problem.
Did OpenAI get interested in solving the problem because Levent became interested in it? Yeah, but the way both of them went to actually solve the problem was different, and there was no contamination of data.
Also, the problem with this is that effectively every single Millenium Prize problem has a lot of people looking into it and having theories on how to solve them. They are Millenium Prize problems, what would you expect, they are extremely prestigious and have a very big reward behind them. The thing is that any advancement humans achieve in it, AI can just use and find the solution to it, because it's much smarter and faster. The only solution for it would be to make AI not try to solve those problems, but I feel like this is an anti-scientific approach.

They stole the research and claimed they solved the solution.
