Those are not exclusive to Haskell. Personally, just from reading the title, I was hoping for an article about the design of type systems in programming languages in general.

That shouldn't matter, I'm just curious if it would actually be sufficient legal grounds for a suit or if it would be dismissed immediately.

That is some of the most nonsensical philosophical rambling I've ever seen. There are many problems with it but the main one is that it assumes a priori that humans are intelligent and machines are not, and then uses circular reasoning

If you're so sure about that then you should be able to provide a rigorous, testable definition of intelligence, and a proof of why that definition specifically and nothing less is what must be met for machines to become exponentially

What's the easiest way to get this functionality outside of the browser, e.g. as a CLI tool? Last time I looked I wasn't able to find any easy to run models that supported more than a handful of languages.
