Prediction: AI models will find a real integer factorization algorithm before 2027
mgostIH · x · 2026-10-30
Developer mgostIH predicts that AI models will discover an actual algorithm for integer factorization before 2027. Since integer factorization underpins RSA encryption, the bold claim has sparked discussion about the ceiling of models' scientific research capabilities.
