The other is the widely held suspicion that much of the “breakthrough” mathematics here has been stolen from real researchers who’ve been using chatgpt to develop their theories by talking to it
I think that was just some rumor. In the end the accusation was that they basically brute-forced a solution using methods developed by someone else and claimed they solved it but those methods were public, not stolen because they used ChatGPT.





















Here’s what the field should do: ignore those paper and never publish them. Then have people verify the math and publish the proofs as their own (whoever can do it first gets the credit).
