When you share thoughts with AI, and don't have Zero Data Retention (ZDR), you are feeding into their training data.
OpenAI admits that they cannot rule out that de-identified data derived from Levent Alpöge and Tristan Buckmaster's work was used to train their models and therefore used in their Navier-Stokes result.
@fj The only issue seems to be the research exclusivity. If the research is truly Open, the beast will be fed.
So I really think it should be the institution or researchers who decide: do you want to keep exclusivity before publishing or are you OK with your inference provider rushing to publish your ongoing work first? (works with any service (like storage) provider, really)
@fj For long-horizon researchers, the leaks could even be accidental by leaking your unfinished insights to other coopeting researchers, if the model training to release cycle completed before you are done.
