We'll see where the dust settles but I'm kind of shocked that so many people seem to think that using wizardlm without attribution would be fine if they did. Before getting to that though - seriously why are people fighting over twitter? In public? What is this nonsense? Just email them privately.
If they did use their work without citation - that's plagarism. That'll get you fired. Your career will be over. If you pull that sort of stunt on a publication and you're caught, maybe you'll get away with it. But many places have very strict zero tolerance policies for that sort of academic dishonestly and will expel/fire you. You're more likely to end up with your life ruined for plagarism and dishonesty like this than fraudulent data because you can claim bad data is a mistake, while if you actively take credit for someone else's work, yeesh. Don't mess with plagarism. Cite your sources and give credit for ideas. Scientific fraud doesn't have a clear tangible 'victim' to center the story around but plagarism does and the person you ripped off is motivated to achieve justice. Like stealing from the poor vs the rich.
