You must either make a tool of the creature, or a man of him. You cannot make both.

Somewhat analogously the best predictor of if I read a book on a given day is if I read the day before, I'd guess.

Very cool project! Reminds me Chiang's great short story 'The Truth of Fact, the Truth of Feeling':

> “If you speak slowly, you pause very briefly after each word. Thatʼs why we leave a space in those places when we write. Like this: How. Many. Years. Old. Are. You?” He wrote on his paper as he spoke, leaving a space every time he paused: Anyom a ou kuma a me?

> “But you speak slowly because youʼre a foreigner. Iʼm Tiv, so I donʼt pause when I speak. Shouldnʼt my writing be the same?”

I quoted from the middle of the article what I found interesting. I don't submit on here much and I just put that in the title field without thinking. I'm glad that comment provides proper context on this.

Sorry, my mistake. Thanks for the reminder. I don't think I can change it after 2 hrs.

Agreed, it also leads performance on arc-agi-1. Here's the leaderboard where you can toggle between arc-agi-1 and 2: https://arcprize.org/leaderboard

Very interesting to hear two technologists at a tech business conference say things along the lines of: "our tools do not merely extend us, they transform us", followed up with "we've become numb to the devastating consequences of technology".

(I know I'm somewhat selectively reading but still)
