I don't know, Aaron himself orchestrating the golden calf seems as close to state-sponsored idolatry as fits in the narrative. (No comment on the rest of the epistemological clustercuss.)
You say Trump has "lost" touch with reality as if he ever had it. He comprehends that opening the strait is important but utterly lacks the mental or emotional capacity to understand in any level of detail what that requires.
I'd call him a little bit sloppy, in need of proofreading. Certainly not an overuser of AI. He writes at least one of these monster posts a week on top of (IIRC) teaching in college, so it's understandable if he's in a rush.
And yeah, it's not the best, but it's really not worth discounting his writing more than he himself already does at the end. Lots of smart people have imperfect language skills.
Iran charging tolls is not an acceptable definition of an "open" strait.
All the stuff about China's energy supply... it's not that deep. Y'all are trying to believe Trump is playing 5D chess when he's demonstrably shit at checkers.
That's a fun story, but it doesn't match the evidence at any point. Your fixation on intraspecific competition as the only significant driver of intelligence is leading you far astray.
They shouldn't be mad at you at much as dismiss you. You should admit that sticking to it and trying to make other people acknowledge it is ridiculous, a joke at best.
If you've "invented" some relatively simple combination of existing pieces, the only sensible and humble thing to do is acknowledge that you're probably not the first one.
The evidence is literally every other evolved form of intelligence. Including, despite your speculation, octopuses. Do recall "the environment" also includes other intelligent agents an animal needs to compete with. Does that help you understand? A runaway process might be required for human level intelligence but clearly not in general.
Basically all octopuses are solitary and die after breeding. LPSOs are nested in one group of octopuses. You're proposing that one group of octopuses developed social behavior and multiple breeding, then had a bunch of descendants who went back to exactly the normal octopus behavior. Hopefully it's obvious why this fails Occam's razor.
Intelligence is plenty adaptive when you're just trying to outsmart the environment.
The notion that this is a "living fossil" is... pretty wild. It's genus octopus. Unless it's wildly misclassified (doubtful), it has a recent-ish common ancestor with most other common octopuses, which all have normal octopus behavior. You find yourself in need of extraordinary evidence.
Oh please. Do it then. It's just as easy as multiplication, right? Because otherwise it wouldn't have made any sense to bring it up. So go for it. If you don't want to be evil and MitM online banking sessions, publish the algorithm and collect your Turing award at your earliest convenience. Unless, perhaps, it is a bit harder, as said in the post you first responded to.
One of the early selling points of LLMs was their ability to mimic styles. I haven't heard about that for a while though. Wouldn't that at least obscure the classic tells, if not eliminate them? I think the reason most (obvious) AI output is obvious is because people don't bother to hide it.
Not in geometry for me, but it was required in my linear algebra, discrete math and computer architecture classes, all of which were required for my CS degree.
I've found that any time you try to generalize about what is or isn't "usually" required in school, there are a lot of exceptions, to say the least. Curriculum is all over the place.

Dude, this is an answer to an entirely different question. He's proposing an interpretation of QM, which is independent from "how many fundamental particles".
There's definitely a strong shared flavor between this and behavior trees. Almost like a goal stack in this system is a continuation or call-stack of a behavior-tree traversal-in-progress.
