You are correct. That's exactly how I've always seen it used in industry. It also implies company wouldn't let them back in with a boomerang.

Interest rates only affect purchasing, not renting, at least at first order. Is purchasing demand actually fixed? I'd expect people to substitute renting for buying - I certainly do. Also note theoretically purchase prices would adjust

Interesting for the hard example of #2, it outperforms the project, though I credit this to memorization (given that it is able to reproduce the correct stanza and punctuation for "Spring and Fall, to a Young Child"). FWIW, the on

I'm not talking about intelligence but expertise. GPT-4 is a lot better than me at unfamiliar tasks, because it has the advantage of being able to readily transform all data on the internet. Once I have trained myself, I generally can

What's intelligence though? GOFAI (level 1) is just logic and search, which are properties of modern optimizing compilers as well. Even Deep Blue (level 4) is just logic and search.
