If solving these puzzles is sufficiently easy, then solving 1000 should be
fairly trivial for somebody who writes an agent that take care of
everything else short of just solving the puzzle.
Even in fairly well connected developing countries like Indonesia you can
get workers for $30-40 a month. If a system like this became wide spread,
I would go back there and and start a company that solved these puzzles
wholesale by the thousand for people who for one reason or another wanted
them solved. I think that we could easily press the prices down to a buck
per k or less.
Read my lips: You cannot not solve design problems in inherently flawed
systems by handicapping the agent.
