contents These proceedings start with a discussion of my recent experiences with large language models and potential implications for their usage in our field. This is followed by an AI generated summary of my talk at the workshop ``Recent Progress in Computational String Geometry,'' held at the Chennai Mathematical Institute in January 2026. The focus is on four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ Minkowski vacua in type IIB compactifications that live deep in the interior of moduli space and admit an exact worldsheet description in terms of Landau--Ginzburg models. The main examples are the $1^9$ and $2^6$ models, mirror to rigid Calabi--Yau threefolds and therefore free of Kähler moduli. This makes them ideal laboratories for testing whether fluxes can stabilize all fields and for probing conjectures about the string landscape and the swampland. Based mostly on arXiv:2406.03435, arXiv:2407.16756, we review how higher-order terms in the flux superpotential can stabilize fields that remain massless at quadratic order, how isolated Minkowski vacua arise in the $2^6$ model, and why these constructions provide sharp data for the tadpole and massless Minkowski conjectures. We also emphasize the role of arXiv:2407.16758 by other authors, where the first Minkowski vacua of this type with all fields massive were identified.
