I don't know the field, but I'd assume such an AI would require resources on par with landing a man on the moon. Not something that can be trivially done by a single person, unlike, say, the development of calculus. As such, this should be a fairly easy point for the Gatekeeper to verify. I could be wrong, though, as this sort of AI is certainly not my area of specialization!
