Why stop there? Combine this with other knowledge testing methods:

pre-code: planning mode

coding: humantodo.dev

after-code: sphinx hook

I think the elephants knew where he lived, so that’s the easy part.

Now regarding how elephants knew he passed (all the sources I’ve seen say no one told the elephants), there are few possibilities:

- whole thing is made up

- someone told the elephants

- the elephants knew through magic/energy/tree of life/etc

- the elephants knew from other animals, maybe the crows told them

Now take your belief

IMO these kind of advices never matters. Any individual still needs to make tens or hundreds of little decisions (every day) themselves, and that's what really makes all the difference.

This trend started even before AI but just go accelerated recently. Us software engineers are sitting in the front-row experiencing it first and hardest. Not just the fact AI can code now, adjacent terms of similar symptoms are also "loneliness epidemic", "cost of living", etc.

Before this turns into an endless rant, back to the question: in the age of "100:1 agents to human ratio soon?", we should be even more nicer to each other fellow human beings. That may help us find purpose/motivations again.

Agreed “remembering” stuff is critical in most life’s situations where if you did, you will appeared to be smart. This is probably why spaced repetition has been a key element in learning for the past few decades.

But “remembering” is only the beginning (you have to remember first!), after that, elements like understanding relations, connecting dots and remixing, timing, etc will truly make one shine.

In one way, it’s like the current “LLM + Harness” setup for agents. LLM is how well it remembers, but different harness techniques really matters, at times even a worse model mixed with great harness can outperform great model with bad harness
