But the "computer" is magic, to you. I could prove anything by claiming I completed a trivial-to-explain exhaustive search. The only support or refutation would be someone doing their own search. It's a very weak foundation

Why should you trust that the relatively small core of Lean is correct? The core of Lean got a lot less correct when a well-meaning AI system probed Lean for corner cases (bugs) that would "prove" a false conjecture. Corner cases

"backdoors" aren't holes, they are well-documented superuser APIs. The hack will be by compromising the API user's credentials (moles, stolen passwords, etc), not compromising the server's design intent.

One question I have about ARC-AGI-3 is how much it depends on vision ability, which has a substantial hardware component that isn't "General" "Intelligence". What happens if the game is encoded in a non-visual logic
