I now agree that I was overconfident in P != NP. I was thinking only of failures where my general understanding of and intuition about math and computer science are correct. In fact most of the failure probability comes from the case where I (and most computer scientists) are completely off base and don’t know at all what is going on. I think that worlds like this are unlikely, but probably not 1 in a million.
