>Are you implying that OpenAI using someones unpublished research without their permission to solve an career defining math problem

Good thing they never did that then

This is the real issue, though this article does not really hit on it explicitly just alludes to it.

Yes I think they should be more direct. Not sure why they weren't

I didn't know this article was about that issue at all. Yeah, if the issue is properly citing work then yes, OpenAI needs to do that. But the article read like it was tackling a completely different issue.

That's one of several issues, obviously a big one, and they do touch on it:

> Often these solutions are announced in a rush, leaving no time for a proper writeup, the isolation of new methods and ideas, and citing relevant previous work of others. As in all creative professions, this raises severe attribution and plagiarism questions.

Yes. I forgot about that section. That is probably the one thing that the AI companies can and should do better on.
