@sun seems she was doing research in this area for her whole life https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-a-99-year-old-mathematician-unraveled-a-century-old-braid-mystery/

i don't see how llms can come up with a new proof, given their statistical nature. they can replicate the style of existing art, but coming up with a new style seems impossible to me.
