> Modern AI Breaks German Enigma Code in 13 Minutes
Please use the original title: "How 2,000 Droplets Broke the Enigma Code in 13 Minutes".
"Modern AI" has very little to do with the performance here. As the article states, the team worked 4 weeks and had 2,000 machines to run their code. Even brute-forcing would give you a performance close to that.
Quoting from the article:
> So for the AI to shine, we actually use 2,000 minions that do the tedious work. Everybody praises AI, but it's actually the minions that do the 99% of work. Life, right?
- dang 8y agoOk, we'll use that title except with an English word replacing the brand name.
