brute forces your hard-math assumptions in seconds
You spend days proving hardness assumptions and writing papers on post-quantum protocols. Math never sleeps.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still explain why a specific protocol choice feels 'elegant' to a human peer.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 3
AI models instantly digest and critique all new preprint submissions.
Month 3
Massive compute clusters brute-force your proofs to find hidden flaws.
Month 6
Software automatically generates secure-by-default primitives faster than any human.
Month 10
Algorithms now dominate all academic journals with flawless, machine-generated theory.
Month 13 · D-Day
Your research credentials are deleted as the machine solves all remaining math.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
