The speaker says Herb Simon's 1957 classical technique for Tower of Hanoi generalizes to arbitrary lengths, while LLMs do not.

“uh Herb Simon solved it in 1957 with a classical technique that generalizes to arbitrary length whereas the LLMs do not generalize to arbitrary length and face problems and so I could go through more but the gist of it is I don't see the qualitative problems that I think need to be solved um and I'll just go to your 1045 10 to the 45th because it's really interesting to me um I wrote a piece once with Christophe”
