"Buckmaster has questioned whether OpenAI's systems had been exposed to his private mathematical drafts, which he had been feeding into the company's tools during the year."
Duh, of course the research and personal information theft tools steal.
"When Buckmaster indicated that he intended to speak publicly about the situation, he says he was told, “Why would you ruin your career?”"
That is mild. Remember what happened to Suchir Balaji.

1. Mathematician uses LLM to solve problem and discusses it with other mathematicians but doesn't publish yet.
2. Rumors of solution reach OpenAI team, who use LLM to solve the same problem. They also don't publish yet.
3. OpenAI team and mathematician get into argument about who should publish when and how.
