    @WolfLink so you’re saying there’s a measurable correlation between practicing a skill and getting better at it? Amazing

    What’s this got to do with the Big Averaging Machine?

      Specifically trying to do something will get it done a lot faster than waiting for it to happen by chance.

        @WolfLink and that’s how evolution works, is it?

          Yes it is, in fact. Tiny, random variations, which typically take millions of years to end being a noticeable change.

            @WolfLink note how nothing there is “trying” to do anything

              Exactly my point. I’d expect humans trying to make something will get results on a timescale about a million times faster than evolution.

                about a million times faster than evolution

                Ah, so you also think intelligent AI is at least 4000 years away.
