AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around self-identification as a mathematical genius and the search for a community of similarly intelligent individuals. Participants engage in playful banter, with one member humorously challenging another to prove a complex mathematical statement related to the Riemann zeta function. The conversation shifts to light-hearted commentary on the nature of genius, with references to grammar and the use of the term "genius" in a whimsical context. There is also a mention of the irony in the original poster's claim of genius, as others poke fun at the seriousness of the topic. The thread concludes with a suggestion to end the discussion, highlighting the mix of humor and intellectual challenge throughout the exchange.

Trolling first post at PF
Am a mathematical genius and computer science and other by most metrics that are available today.

Are there any other here who are confirmed to be such?
Trying to find a forum of smart people.

I too identify as a genius. Furthermore, I identify all others as geniuses, too!
 
I know I'm a legend in my own mind...probably a genius too.

and, sorry, just to check that you are actually a genius, please provide the solution to the following:

Show that the all the complex zeros of ##\zeta(s)## have real part equal to ##1/2##, where $$\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{1}{n^s}$$

Sorry to overstep my authority after the lock, but I finally realized what bothered me about this statement by the OP (other than the trolling). I'll unlock the thread and thread ban the OP to ask who else sees the irony in this violation of the grammar police code...

I'm only annoyed because I forgot to say I was a very stable genius. Ah well... not presidential timber.

No problem. I have a proof under the RH (standard assumption in cryptology).

Are you sure you're not just meta-stable?

She could finish her math
Before her bath,

Just because a person opens themselves up to ridicule does not mean that it is nice to pile on.
