You can always argue that the model has seen some variation of a given problem. The question is if there are problems that are not a variation of something that already exists. How often do you encounter truly novel problems in your life?

I actually bought this as a physical book on Amazon. Naturally it came as a print-on-demand book. Unfortunately it has many problems in this format. E.g. the lack of margins makes it hard to read the end of sentences towards the gutter. Also some text is pushed into each other. Not sure what source file format you have to provide to Amazon, but it's certainly not the pdf provided in the repo.

Edit:

It seems the overlapping text also occurs on some pdf readers: https://github.com/BoltzmannEntropy/interviews.ai/issues/2

Yes, I got this. Just wanted to point out that a particular consequence of extrapolating would be that players can see enemys around corners. You already mention that the game would be unplayable if players get teleported every few ms, and above just describes why, aside from aesthetics, makes it unplayable.

This was (is?) also possible with Lyft. When I was interning in the US, my visa sponsor sent me a SIM card that they clearly reused several times a year. Opening the Lyft app with this SIM automatically logged me in to the attached account. I didn’t noticed this and took a 70$ trip from SF to SV. Next morning I realized it wasn’t my account and credit card details. Wrote to Lyft support but never heard back. It wasn’t even possible to log out of this account and create a new one.

Edit distance allows for insertion, deletion and substitution. Some allow custom cost for substitution (e.g. characters closer together on a keyboard have lower substitution cost than other; for typo normalization). What I describe in my comment is to use the cosine similarity between learned character embeddings as substitution costs.

In Germany computer science is called 'Informatik'. I think this is a better name for what we are doing. It is the science of information and how to efficiently store, process and transform it. The computer is just a tool for it but the methods and algorithms can also be applied in smaller scale and even analog in different areas.
