“We’ll never know what actually happened but what we know is optimization tasks can be tricky, and often the best way to achieve a ‘perfect score’ can be ending the game as soon as possible — or not starting it at all.”

So, the military leadership should learn to play tic-tac-toe before GTNW or just watch the end of the movie War Games? How do we ge them to do that?

Too bad Rat's cousin can't construct smart government leaders who'd never go to war.

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

Rat should make the design of the bomb open source so that only this kind of bomb will be produced in the future, because financial reasons. 😁

We’re still working on fastenings to make sure it doesn’t move even accidentally.

💩 - they are WE. With rocks and sticks WE war if nothing else.

Rocks are a constant in all protests, sticks were recently used in a border battle in the mountains between India and China. 💩

I assume the smart bomb could be duped by its battery.
