... thought not completed _in other news_ maybe lets have _karl_ write a maze cutter and solver! this is an introductory task that is not intuitive to everyone, but i grew up with algorithms so it used to be intuitive to me. i challenged a language model to do it in 4 lines. this is because of how language models are trained. me, i could do it in four lines _only_ if i prepared by imagining or doing it in many more lines, and then shrunk it down. we could combine that by putting the imagination into notes, and keep the notes in 4 lines, but it's more relevant that how people work and what they present are different, as well as people working differently from machines
