It obeys the rules of the road and kills many fewer people - 0 killed in 250M miles. Driving a machine is something people are not good enough at frankly.

please don't do this kind of thing! go cure cancer or something.

you have to sell it (or deceive for material gain) for it to be fraud.

...but math does have applications! maybe there is some math that people can't understand, but which has engineering applications, and which machines might apply to solve problems?

I guess it could be neat to play 100 of these at the same tempo at once but otherwise I'm having trouble coming up a use case for this...

family life is not about "compounding gains" -- in part because family life is not about "gain" at all. On the contrary - you sacrifice and are ultimately consumed! The language of investing is entirely out of place in this context.

^hell yeah! thx

we are seeing robust profits and growth in margins in the S&P even ex tech and some of this spillover from the hyperscaling but some may be due to productivity enhancement from AI.

maybe the comment length is a ruse to increase token consumption

I have codex rewrite all Opus' comments with great results.

while it is a groovy into to recursion and other cool ideas, GEB annoys me in that I feel like the three figures in the title are ill matched. Godel proves a super important result in math, sure... Escher was a skilled draughtsman who had a feel for tesselation. An OK artist IMO but no special insights. Bach on the other hand was an expressive genius who in the volume, power and beauty of his productions just seemed to drop out the sky like a meteor. Escher does not belong in the same breath frankly. if Bach made a crab canon or did other marginally math-y things that is just not the point - the work lives or dies in entirely different terms...

research tilts towards grades not helping learners in contrast to non-quantitative feedback so there's that.
