Anything where it's less time consuming to validate work than to do the work yourself, which is a lot. If it's not real-time like driving then this is great.

- asdff 4y agoI'm scratching my head at an output where it would take less time to verify than to just do it yourself. Once you've fully verified you've put in the work required to do it yourself, no?
- spunker540 4y agoIt’s a lot easier to proofread something than to write it from scratch. Also from a computational complexity angle there’s actually a mathematical definition — “NP Complete” which describes problems that are cheap to verify but hard to solve. One example could be a solution to a maze. It’s easy to look at the maze solution and verify it connects start to end without crossing walls, but much more time consuming to actually solve the maze with all the wrong turns needed to produce a solution.
