what i like about this is that it implies you can build heuristics good enough to make it to GM level. this is great because i find calculating moves a headache

- jvanderbot 2y agoThe thing is the heuristic done by a huge network might be insanely complex and doing all kinds of calculations. it's just that it's one function call so we ignore all those calculations. It's not immediately obvious that deploying a transformer to solve for next best move means that a human mind can avoid difficult calculations and just play by gut. There's just too much wordplay going on with "heuristic"
- mewpmewp2 2y agoArguably intuition and gut feeling are also insanely complex systems doing all kinds of calculations.
- jvanderbot 2y agoSure, but apples and oranges have a lot in common too, and if we call everything fruit, it's unnecessarily hard to differentiate them ... is all I'm saying.
