BRUTE INTELLIGENCE

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

AI agents can work through loops to complete complex tasks. Domains that work around problems with verifiable answers are susceptible to these kinds of loops. This is a new form of brute force. It is like having a million scientists working in a million labs, all taking swings at the same thing. While AI may not be smarter than humans, it is faster. Being fast enough might make up for the difference in intelligence.
