Funny that God is just a PSPACE oracle. At least in the sense that the oracle can answer essentially all of those questions.

- jofer 7y agoI think you didn't read far enough... (See aliens questions later on) That having been said, I think it's fascinating that most of these questions are just that, but are impossible to answer at present. The probability space is just too large. It's one of the fascinating aspects of go. It's a very simple set of mathematical rules that yields incredibly complex behavior and is practical impossible to brute force "perfect" gameplay as a result. I.e. you can't search the full space, you have to learn to predict optional strategies and always wonder if there isn't a better solution somewhere.
- somesortofsystm 7y agoWell, the premise of the exercise is that One can even Communicate to God, so this is two or three incongruencies away from being infinitely unsolvable. Atari!
- jerf 7y agoI don't think that's a characteristic of "God" here (which I mean in the sense that you are using it), I think it's the characteristic of asking about a game that "fits" into PSPACE.
