Okay, let's assume what you say ends up being true. They effectively cheat, then raise some large fundraising round predicated on those results.

Two months later there's a bombshell exposé detailing insider reports of how they cheated the test by cooking their training data using an army of PhDs to hand-solve. Shame.

At a minimum investor confidence goes down the drain, if it doesn't trigger lawsuits from their investors. Then you're looking at maybe another CEO ouster fiasco with a crisis of faith across their workforce. That workforce might be loyal now, but that's because their RSUs are worth something and not tainted by fraud allegations.

If you're right, I suppose it really depends on how well they could hide it via layers of indirection and compartmentalization, and how hard they could spin it. I don't really have high hopes for that given the number of folks there talking to the press lately.
