What does "taking credit" even mean here? I am not saying that I contributed to the mathematical work in the proof. I am simply disagreeing with you that the process is fair to describe as plain continue-shotting. You saying "without a difference" does not actually make your claim true. There clearly is a difference between a specific technique getting to the result and that technique not getting to the result. Whether or not you like the technique, and whether or not you consider a result obtained through that technique of any value. I thought there is some value in sharing both the technique and the result, and that's why I published a post about it. I think it's slightly different from "an AI company threw 50,000 agents on it" and it's also slightly different from "I just said Claude to work hard and it got me a solution", and that makes it worth sharing with other people.
I am not saying that my work constitutes a mathematical contribution on its own. Not any more than stumbling upon an anonymous manuscript with the solution would constitute a mathematical contribution. I do, however, think that it can lead to a mathematical contribution if any mathematicians consider it worthwhile to do something with it. Whether or not they consider it worthwhile is not up to me.
