Not sure thats exactly what that means. Its already likely the case that these models contained IMO problems and solutions from pretraining. It's possible this means they were present in the system prompt or something similar. by vonneumannstan 5 minutes ago
Something that was hotly debated in the thread with OpenAI's results:
"We also provided Gemini with access to a curated corpus of high-quality solutions to mathematics problems, and added some general hints and tips on how to approach IMO problems to its instructions."

Doesn't diminish the result, but doesn't seem too different from classical ML techniques if quality of data in = quality of data out. by lufenialif2 16 minutes ago
