Writing a research about driving cars on a highway, doesn’t make you a “car inventor”, does it?

data analysis is different from algorithm design, the later is often considered 'inventing' due to the novel nature

The 4th author on "Training language models to follow instructions with human feedback" is purely lying when he says he coinvented ChatGPT and RLHF because writing a paper about RLHF is like writing about driving cars on the highway, whereas ??? is like (co-?)inventing cars, which is synonymous with his claim.

I appreciate a good hot take, I really do. But I can't parse it.
