Austrian girl manages to beat AI to the punch solving a mathematical problem, despite not having a gigantic data center to help her.
Which highlights a major flaw in the "AI is smarter than humans" narrative: humans have no direct access to the same giant computational facilities. They cannot simply write a program and run it on those machines. The machines are all controlled by the AI companies, so you have to use their AI as a gateway to the compute, and then they can claim their AI helped solved the problem.
