Reaction from the Dresden group theorist who disputed attribution of an earlier OpenAI result.

Summary

Mathstodon, 04:22 UTC Oct 7: "It is impossible to put in words..." with a link to the repository's overview.pdf. Low reach. Other Mathstodon reactions that night: David Wood, "The world has changed" (https://mathstodon.xyz/@DavidWood/117396691602406841); Sang-il Oum posted a series of graph-theory claims (Hadwiger counterexample, Barnette, Seymour second-neighbourhood, UGC); Anatole Dedecker noted claims of a Baum–Connes counterexample and amenability of Thompson's group (https://mathstodon.xyz/@anatolededecker/117396562569622214); Wouter (@WouterCvB) called the write-up of the K_r-free colouring result "horrible as usual" but said it was "weirdly reassuring to finally know the answer" (https://mathstodon.xyz/@WouterCvB/117397111607115824).
