I'm equally dumbfounded that with all this computing power no one has written an AI that can identify primes 99.999% of the time for quicker testing. Train that thing and reverse its logic. I'm not one of those people who think primes are the keys to the universe. I'm not sure how one day people realized there's no pattern, just a form of embedded randomness, behind any irrational number like Pi... yet still think the prime sequence is more important than that.

[edit] it's as if we're so desperate for order to arise out of chaos that we'll bend reality to find the order in any sequence. Seems like our own problem, not God's.

[edit2] I am eagerly awaiting any response to know why this is such an unpopular comment! I'm excited to have my mind changed. Tell me.
