One is the obvious expected answer, so the value is not wasting time with the video. It's like a murder mystery where the culprit is obvious from the beginning, but the whole book is spent talking about hypothetical angles.
If the answer was 0, 1.5 or 2 in terms of topology, or anything else, then it would be interesting to hear.
- ColinWright 8y agoSo did you already know about persistent homology? Are you aware of its potential applications to machine learning? Did you already know why some people say the answer is 2? Consider all the people who (a) did not know about these things, and (b) didn't bother to watch the video because of your post. I'm sure you feel like you've done them a favour, but have you really?
