Comment by echelon

Google did the correct and respectful thing.

It appears that OpenAI didn't officially enter (whereas Google did), that they knew Google was going to gold medal, and that they released their news ahead of time (disrespecting the kids and organizers) so they could scoop Google.

Really scummy on OpenAI's part.

The IMO closing ceremony was July 19. OpenAI announced on the same day.

IMO requested the tech companies to wait until the following week.
