Partly yes. But if you throw a million items at the wall you also have tell which ones stick. An infinite random walk isn’t useful unless you have infinite verification to determine what is promising, so you can guide your next steps and continue discovering stuff.
- hackerlight 3y ago> An infinite random walk It's not purely random. Alpha Go doesn't search random moves, it searches a subset of possible moves that are probably good. The Darwinian analogy of the GP is apt. We're not as cognitively flexible as we like to believe. We die, and our children are exposed to new training data which causes them to believe different things. That's part of how we adapt as a species. Sort of like how GPT keeps changing as it gets retrained on new data.
