What happened
Mathematician Tristan Buckmaster says OpenAI pressured him after his AI-assisted progress on the Navier-Stokes equations leaked. The company allegedly tried to remove his co-author because he works at Anthropic and threatened Buckmaster when he refused. OpenAI then claimed its own breakthrough using the same unusual solution path. Buckmaster had uploaded all his drafts to Codex. OpenAI told him the model didn't look…
