The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“after actually do the the calculation simulations and it gets to the right answer and then you reinforce that policy and you upweight those reasoning strategies those reasoning strategies will not generalize to novel systems so it's not useful to us but as we build up baskets of experimental data and like stitching things together having the lineage the whole process that gives us the ability to construct new types of environments that are just not plausible elsewhere”Play from 13:02Report a misattribution
