Have an AI model prove that P is not equal to NP. Then I’ll be impressed.

So you'll only be impressed if it's superintelligent and solves a problem no human has? That's a ridiculously high bar.

Humans have been shown to solve problems and discover things that "no human has" up to that point. So I wouldn't even call it "superintelligent". But it would definitely be truly useful at that point!

The marketing speak of some companies goes into effectively fantastical territory. Some claims that are made effectively imply P = NP, which is like bad TV-series-level science fiction, but some people fall for it.
