Mathematicians demand proof OpenAI didn't train on their work
kevcampb · hn · 2026-09-10
- The Verge reports that several mathematicians are publicly demanding OpenAI prove its training data did not include their work, questioning the sourcing and licensing behind OpenAI's math training corpus.
- The dispute highlights a transparency gap: authors cannot verify whether their work was used, and OpenAI has offered no verifiable accounting.
- It may foreshadow copyright/data-licensing conflicts and chill academic collaboration with AI labs.
