I wrote a deeply personal story about an underdog struggle not to take credit where I had none.
For months, I used AI while focusing obsessively on a Millennium math problem with a million-dollar prize attached. When it came to putting my name on the paper, I broke down.
It's a deep introspection about morality, confession, struggle, correspondence with one of the world’s leading mathematicians, poverty, health problems, and the final decision to stay clean and admit that it was AI that made the proof, not me.
It is bloody and heavy. It touches on madness and genius, and limps along that broken fine line, always wondering why each choice feels like the wrong one.
By trying to solve one of the largest open problems in mathematics, I was actually solving problems in my own soul.
I have had people read the book, cry to me, and open their lives to me afterward, entrusting me with some of their darkest parts.
So I just want to say that this book exists, and I would very much love to hear the opinion for those interested in reading it. It is a fast read. Once you start, you can go through it quickly, and I believe it resonates with people.
It is not a technical book and I am not posting it here as a claim that the proof is valid. It is a confession, a record, and a story about what AI does to authorship when the stakes are high enough.
