Graham's Number Is Prime (Proof By Google Search)
The peak of mathematical rigor in 2023: Googling whether Graham's number is prime and taking the first result as gospel. For those unaware, Graham's number is so incomprehensibly large that if you tried to write it out in standard notation, the number of digits wouldn't fit in the observable universe. Yet somehow Google confidently declares it prime in 0.35 seconds. Mathematicians who've spent decades proving primality for much smaller numbers are clearly wasting their time. Next research paper: "Prime factorization solved with this one weird trick. Peer reviewers hate it!"
