> But if it does not solve it, will you really wager 30 years of your life on the possibility that you might be smarter than the AI?

The "AI" is trained on centuries of human theoretical frameworks and innovations. The "AI" can also work on problems full-time without teaching, admin, or mentoring duties. OpenAI spent millions to race human researchers on Navier Stokes, and that doesn't account for any training costs. How many person-years would that pay for? Since the key ideas were developed by humans just a few years prior, it's not unreasonable to surmise that a comparable level of total effort by humans would also have decent chances of breakthrough, with the additional benefit that the insights uncovered along the way would be immediately digestible and easy to communicate to other mathematicians.
