A viral AI-community joke: the author dreams that Ramanujan is transmitting mathematical insights to him, and just as a solution to the Riemann Hypothesis starts to form, a guy wakes him up — "You will never have this," he says, then immediately starts using Claude to apply for more academic funding.
A perfect self-deprecating meme for the AI era: transcendent genius insight vs. the mundane grind of grant writing with LLMs.
