## AI overview

The article examines data from a search for counterexamples to the Riemann Hypothesis. It reports that the search stopped partway through numbers with 136 prime divisors, and that the strongest witness found remained below the value needed to disprove the hypothesis. It also summarizes runtime and AWS costs.

## Source excerpt

We're ironically searching for counterexamples to the Riemann Hypothesis. Setting up Pytest Adding a Database Search Strategies Unbounded integers Deploying with Docker Performance Profiling Scaling up Productionizing In the last article we added a menagerie of "production readiness" features like continuous integration tooling (automating test running and static analysis), alerting, and a simple deployment automation. Then I let it loose on AWS, got extremely busy with buying a house, forgot about this program for a few weeks (no alerts means it worked flawlessly!
