OpenAI fought dirty on career-making math problem, says NYU mathematician

NYU mathematics professor Tristan Buckmaster, in collaboration with Anthropic mathematician Levent Alpöge, announced three proofs related to a major unsolved problem in theoretical mathematics. Their findings, which utilized both Codex and Claude AI models, are significant. However, the announcement is also accompanied by controversy, as Buckmaster alleges that OpenAI engaged in questionable practices while attempting to solve the same mathematical problem.

This report uniquely details the controversy surrounding OpenAI's alleged "dirty" tactics in solving a math problem, unlike other reports focusing solely on the proofs themselves.
