Abstract: **Discovery Report: The Proto-Elamite "AI Decipherment" Video — No Mathematical Tablet Identified** **Verdict:** The tablet featured in the video **"AI Cracked Proto Elamite — The Oldest Unread Writing on Earth Finally Speaks" cannot be identified as a specific mathematical or astronomical artifact.** No museum number (BM, YBC, Plimpton, Sb, or otherwise) corresponds to a Proto-Elamite tablet containing advanced geometry, sexagesimal place-value calculations, or sacred constants ($\pi$, $\sqrt{2}$, $\phi$). **The Reality of the Corpus** Proto-Elamite (ca. 3100–2900 BCE, Susa/Iran) is distinct from Mesopotamian cuneiform. The script remains largely undeciphered because the underlying language is unknown and the sign inventory is only partially understood. The corpus consists of **~1,700 tablets**, excavated primarily at Susa (Louvre Sb numbers) and Tepe Yahya. They are **exclusively administrative**: records of grain, livestock, laborers, and textile rations. **Numerical Systems Atte Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
