It does have a use case where something takes longer to produce than it does to verify. For example, a website ...
Every few years there is some new CS fad that people try to trick me into doing research in
"algorithms" (my actual area), then quantum, then blockchain, then AI.
Wish this bubble would just fucking pop already.

"we are likely... fact" is just a special kind of stupid
just instruct it "be sentient" and you're good, why don't these tech CEOs undersand the full potential of this limitless technology?
