Implying there isn’t a market for chickens that are chicks? Clearly there is. The question literally states that the farmer bought chicks, so logically they could go back on the market. They don’t need to be older. The AI got it right.

Hinton says that superintelligence is still 20 years away, and even then he only gives his prediction a 50% chance. A far cry from the few year claim. You must be doing that "strawberry" thing again? To us humans, A-l-t-m-a-n is n
