I would like to see an "AI" trained only up to knowledge through 1903

Then see if it can come up with E=mc^2

		whoa a preprint just three weeks old with my question what voodoo is this lol maybe I picked up the relativity idea subconsciously from somewhere, but I don't recall it specifically, I thought I was being "clever" that it would be a good test

Phew, never have I seen in my life the goalposts move so fast.

It seems like even yesterday that the threshold for impressing someone is that the machine would have to be good at pretending to be a person. Now the threshold is that they have to be able to invent special relativity.

		So glad someone finally made "the goalpost comment", I was worried for a second that I wouldn't get to see it.

		the idea is that it's math, so in theory it could be figured out by machine process but was there enough knowledge by 1903 to truly figure that out? or was it a leap in conscious realization that a machine could not emulate (yet) (pretending to be a person is harder than math imho, much harder)
