Researchers are getting tired of OpenAI gatekeeping its breakthroughs

Researchers' frustration with OpenAI's gatekeeping of breakthroughs signals growing industry tension.

What happened: OpenAI announced breakthroughs in mathematics, computer science, and physics on Monday, along with what it describes as an evolving approach to communicating its findings, including working with expert "shepherds" on how to share them. Why it matters: Researchers who spoke to The Verge say they are growing tired of the company's approach, following a turbulent few months with mathematicians still dealing with hundreds of preprints released at the start of October.
