I'd like to follow you. Do you capture your ramblings somewhere?

It made me very happy, for some reason, that people are systematically and thoroughly studying a subject as obscure as this (fluid dynamics of peeing in insects). I now question if research is happening on every single ridiculous notion that crosses my mind. I bet a bunch of people are actually interested enough in that computation that a field of study exists for it, that I know nothing of, and couldn't find out about if I tried. What all of actual fuck are people looking into?!

It's more like - we gave it a shot with natural intelligence, and now we are trying to see if what we call artificial intelligence can do better.

Hey - you put in the time. Can you please help the rest of us out and post a TLDR?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone post a TLDR. The dude is pleasant to listen to, but he goes ON and ON and ON about his life story and what not. Please just give us the bullet points.

I think it is important to remember that you are catching a person on their journey of acquiring and internalizing information. The reservoir of available information is almost limitless - so no one is going to come close to knowing it all. No point in testing for that. We all navigate the world on different trajectories through this network of information - so your milestones may not be the same as theirs. No point in confirming that theirs are the same as yours.

What you want to look for is their ability to process information, ability to internalize it, and their ability to bring it to bear in solving the problems they will be confronted with. You may have to do this with markers that don't necessarily match your own.

The richness of the network of information they have acquired so far is a marker. The nuances of the insights into that information they have acquired is a marker. The organization of this information into readily usable tools is a marker. These are what you should be looking for, rather than some preconceived ideas of what the markers need to be.

It is more straight forward for them to identify regular students (through their student ids or institutions).

Because "free for students" is a marketing ploy to get them using the product in the hope that they will pay for it when they start earning.

Oh you are so wrong.

That seems like a non-explanation though. Why do chaotic configurations have a higher probability of occurring?

Those are two very different areas. How did you come to learn about each one?
