Fuuuuuuuuck those OpenAI motherfuckers.
The guy who deserves the credit for that millenium problem solution used ChatGPT and OpenAI, after catching wind of his approach, threw shit-tons of money into hardware to beat him to the punch and publish before him. When the mathematician contacted OpenAI like "what the actual fuck" OpenAI was like "oh, we'll let you be a co-author on the paper alongside OpenAI, but only if you don't include the person who worked with you on the problem who is employed by Anthropic". (His employment with Anthropic had nothing to do with his work on this math problem. OpenAI just didn't want the headline to be "mathematician who happens to work for Anthropic solved the problem".)
