the entity needs to be able to solve your problem.

People have fixed software bugs with zero knowledge of what the code is doing and no knowledge of the programming language at hand, purely by statistical pattern matching. Solving the problem with no understanding of it beyond the idea that whatever it was, the right answer was probably something that kind of matched the kind of patterns found in things they'd seen before.

So what does it mean, "to be able to solve your problem"?

Is that even true? Beyond an extremely simple example?

Yeah... I think you just made that up.
