A paper see here on arXiv claims that Chowla's conjecture (applied to the Liouville function instead of the Mobius function), i.e., that $$ \lim_{N\rightarrow \infty} \sum_{n\leq N} \lambda(n+a_1) \lambda(n+a_2) \cdots \lambda(n+a_k)=o(N), $$ implies the Riemann hypothesis. I have been unable to find any references to this claim after some research.
Is this claim new? Any pointers, references appreciated.
