Let’s use k-levels - how many steps are app thinking ahead by?
- k = 0: flat-out claiming. kinda stupid.
- k = 1: RT, to see whether I go along with it
- k = 2: using an RT to pocket
I think people on this site are generally at k = 1 or k = 2. And because the RT was so obvious and blunt, rather than being intricate and testy, it did not feel like k = 1. Thus I believe that Apprentice used the RT to pocket.
thanks for coming to my ted talk
