alt Hacker NewsOr, less favourably: they are burning a ton of tokens on any random "hard" tasks they can think of to try and generate stories about AI doing amazing things to pump the hype, infinite monkeys theorem as a playbook. You only advertise the ones you succeed on, thus pushing the idea that's what they do routinely. Stochastic "genius".

They're building hype around their product by solving genuinely hard problems? To quote xkcd[1]: Mission. Fucking. Accomplished.

If these arguably very finite amount of monkeys allow them to pull off such campaigns so frequently and consistently, these monkeys kinda do got it going on.

Have you noticed "infinity" in the "infinite monkey theorem"? Combined with a combinatorial explosion this means no practical usage.
Whether by brute force or by way of clever tricks, the fact that they reverse engineered the source of these curves is impressive.
