alt Hacker NewsHow deep do you want to go? Because reasonable person wouldn't have expected to hand hold AI(ntelligence) to that level. Of course after pointing it out, it has corrected itself. But that involved looking at the code and knowing the code is poor. If you don't look at the code how would you know to state this requirement? Somehow you have to assess the level of intelligence you are dealing with.
Since the code does not matter, you wouldn’t need or want to phrase it in terms of algorithmic complexity. You surely would have a more real world requirement, like, if the data set has X elements then it should be processed within Y milliseconds. The AI is free to implement that however it likes.
