Getting that gap down to 186 was a huge accomplishment.  It’s a controversial topic in math geek circles, but I am one who is quietly cheering for the software, just as I did when software surpassed humans in chess.  It is an example of where AI is aligned with humans.  We bios have been struggling to reduce that prime gap for centuries.
