I think the author is asserting that it seems to them that some of the stuff put out by the website shows the general trends one expect if someone has learned about some idea from popularizations rather than the technical literature.
Yes that is exactly what I meant. That might sound a little harsh, but that was my impression.
Wow, if that’s all you got from a post trying to explain the very real difference between acing an intelligence test by figuring things out on your own and having a machine do the same after you give it all the answers and how the suggested equations only measure how many answers were right, not how that feat was accomplished, I don’t even know how to properly respond...
Oh and by the way, in the comments I suggest how to keep track of the machine doing some learning and figuring out to Dr. Legg so there’s another thing to consider. And yes, I’ve had the formal instruction in discrete math to do so.
