Somewhat related: a few weeks ago the "Amigo" software sampler plugin was released and it has been a minor hit among music producers. It has nostalgic 8-bit graphics and it emulate's the Amiga's sound pretty well. If you're into music production, it might be worth checking out:

That interpretation requires believing that the host, who knows what’s behind the doors, would sometimes open the door revealing the automobile and ask the contestant if they want to switch to that door. It doesn't really make sense, so that should tip off readers that they've misunderstood the show format.

Marilyn even made this explicit in her answer, writing that the host "knows what's behind the doors and will always avoid the one with the prize" [0]. So readers were arguing her answer was wrong even given this understanding of how the show works.

> Actions have consequences.

In 2022, Calhoun received $22.5 million from Boeing. In February 2023, Boeing awarded Calhoun an incentive of about $5.29 million in restricted stock units to "induce him to stay throughout the company's recovery." In March 2023, Boeing announced Calhoun was being given shares worth $15 million that will vest in installments over three years.

Consequences for who?

When we get to that point -- beyond a machine regurgitating reasonable facsimiles of code based on human examples, but actually designing and implementing novel systems from the ground up -- we'll need far, far fewer workers in general.

Is there not some categorical difference between a purposefully-built system, which given enough time and effort and expertise and constraints, we can engineer to be effectively secure, and a stochastically-trained black box?

Since it's a photomicrography competition, 20X magnification vs 2.5X may play a factor in the judging?
