X users accuse OpenAI of pressuring a renowned mathematician into academic fraud

X user @lorelsg reposted and commented that OpenAI pressured a renowned mathematician to commit academic fraud, and that the mathematician refused — adding that 'there's still more ethics in academia than in these big corporations.'
The accusation is part of the broader OpenAI vs Navier-Stokes controversy over how an AI math breakthrough was promoted. It remains a one-sided claim without hard evidence, but community sentiment is clearly turning against OpenAI.
