It hit me that they designed a course which a 10 year old would have little problem completing, but it's very difficult for an AI, and they did it on purpose. Why?! AIs can be great at things we suck, not just at what we can do easily, and they're much more useful this way. This seems very counterproductive for the future of useful AI.
