A problem becomes exponentially more solvable conditioned on who else can solve it and the tools they use. This is the classic pattern of multiple discovery: once the field and its tools advance far enough, independent minds arrive at the exact same result within a short window. We are observing the same clustering with AI. The difference is that "short" used to mean a few months/years. Now we are within minutes/hours!
