That's only ~365 values. XORshift32 has a period of 2^32-1, a good portion of that (I'd imagine) unique. If XORshift had really good randomness properties, at the extreme we'd expect that the NN would have to special case all of them. What this implies is that XORshift has easily cracked, nonrandom, repeatable patterns (which we suspect of course since it fails certain tests) and that the NN has identified them.
- rurban 5y agoWe knew that before the two ML attempts. You just need to look at the source. There are several other trivial PRNG's with the exact same properties. Never use a trivial PRNG for security or seeding.
