> Because the core of the issue is that it may well not have solved it, but instead plagiarised the significant step of the result from other researchers
It's also true however that I haven't seen a single write up trying to discern what did more of the work in those AI chats - the prompts or the responses - bubble to the surface, also since we don't have access to them.
For example, if I prompt Codex with "Make me a website about strawberry cake" and nothing else, and OpenAI announces they have the best strawberry cake minutes before I launch, I'm not sure they plagiarized anything.
We just don't know if this is quibbling over "who prompted first" or if the researchers came up with anything strikingly original by themselves.
