Also don’t understand the relevance of continuity at all since you didn’t reference it in the post I replied to. A calculator is discontinuous graph/program because there is no point to plot when you divide by 0 (undefined). This is true for your classical program. Over time it won't know how to adapt its f(x) function to handle something as crazy as dividing by zero (it can never do it, but unless you put in an error output for that input, the program will never do so on its own). The belief is these AI programs will be able to make that adaptation. All the changes you bring up that your program can apparently handle are still under your conceptual control (you can map in your mind if this happens, then that happens). You can prove this to yourself when you read your own statement "inputs have already been normalized" - sure, in a world you control. I'm suggesting a world where your telemetry monitoring function can change into a Reddit function if need be, so yeah, kinda batshit. Why would it need to do that? Remember, we can't imagine why, that's the whole point. That's how a program could possibly live a hundred years in a world that is constantly changing. Your program can only exist in a very static and predefined world. There are some that will tell you that you are an ever-changing function. I try to stay out of that simulation :)
