^^^ I think currently I can stretch to me + 2 others (currently, maybe 3) - once I have all this setup - I'll be looking for talent in the field. I'll concentrating on breaking RSA keys over 2048 bits.
Ideally, one of the other folks will be concentrating on building Quantum Resistant Encryption, but really, I don't care.
Anyone wanting in on this initiative is highly likely to by motivated by the notion of advancing the human race.
So it's all good.
@th3j35t3r I came up with my own method of encryption. I am a complete self-taught amateur and definitely not the person you are looking for, but I’d be curious to see if AI could crack it.
@th3j35t3r I have no formal training in cryptography but I am a pretty creative person and I don’t think it’s trivial.
@th3j35t3r sure thing! The whole encrypted book is available. It has the ciphertext and the plaintext in it. So it is a ton of information to parse and know you’ve figured it out. my magnum opus (Bell's Codex) https://a.co/d/jcq2Qxd
