Delip Rao responds to COLM paper code similarity claim: repo and tech reports public since Feb

A commenter noted that a COLM paper's code closely resembles what they independently built from first principles months earlier as rubrify. Delip Rao replied that the work (autorubric) shares many similar data structures, but that his repo and detailed tech reports had been available since February — and with coding agents in the mix, it would be easy for agents to draw inspiration. A dispute over originality in automated rubric-based evaluation tooling.
