Jun 15, 2020 at 1:55 comment added Robert Israel The sequence "least prime with Hamming distance 1 from the k'th odd integer" starts $3, 2, 7, 3, 11, 3, 5, 7, 19, 3, 5, 7, 17, \ldots$. It doesn't seem to be in the OEIS yet, but should be. Are you interested in contributing it? If you don't wish to, I can (with a link to this question).

Jun 14, 2020 at 23:49 comment added Will Sawin The sum from $n$ to infinity of the one over the log of $2^n+m$ is infinite, but I can't imagine trying to prove the existence of such primes with current technology. Even getting density 1 seems impossible to me - you would need to look to $n$ exponentially large in $m$.
