Redditor calls the "stolen Millennium Problem solution" narrative absurd

Reddit user Apollo18Teslaa pushes back on the narrative that an AI's solution to a Millennium Prize Problem was "stolen" from mathematicians.
The author finds the claim absurd: these scientists have had decades to work on the problems, and the idea that they were right on the verge of solving them—possibly with their notes leaked into training data—doesn't hold up. While acknowledging we may never know whether researchers' notes ended up in the training data, the author insists the mathematicians were nowhere near a solution, so the theft story is unconvincing.
