This seems kind of irrelevant? Humans have General Intelligence while having a context window of, what, 5MB, to be generous. Model weights only need to contain the capacity for abstract reasoning and querying relevant information. That they currently hold real-world information at all is kind of an artifact of how models are trained.

Can't continuousness be simulated by lazy evaluation? Also you're assuming the simulator is bound by the same physical limitations that exist inside the simulation which seems unreasonable to me. Simulations are usually vastly simpler than the substrate they run on.

The difference is that reading someone's blog post forces you to take their trajectory through the material and it might not go over the exact points you're curious or confused about. With a forum like StackOverflow you often have to settle for problems that are merely close enough to your own that the solutions apply to it.
