Ok maybe I read it differently than you, but the will in the article doesn't sound like me like what is typically discussed as "free will"? It sounds more like what could also be called "drive" or "striving&quo

The obvious follow up question: are there methods in use to bait such models into suboptimal play and then switch play style to exploit that?

Well it's an enlargement of an existing snowmaking reservoir so I suspect it is the the latter. Probably part of a strategy to make the resort look eco-friendly.

I agree but would add that within the codebase there are also vastly different experiences. The search ads serving stack for example is phenomenal, it is >10 years old, very complex and gets contributions from hundreds of engineers every
