Duke's Conitzer: OpenAI dumping math results is better than users fighting for priority
conitzer · x · 2026-10-08
Vincent Conitzer offers a contrarian take on OpenAI's dumps of math results: if these models are going to be built and released anyway, it's better that results come out via central dumps than random users extracting proofs and claiming credit and priority. He argues the challenges for mathematics and far beyond stem from the rapid improvement of models, not OpenAI's release approach — though smaller results will likely still cause chaos.
