    Yes – which is why people training neural nets periodically get frustrated and say “You know what, this thing’s not producing the results I want, it did something really wrong as a matter of fact. Fuck it, I’m going to stop applying a gradient in the direction of better results, until it gets its act together.”

    Oh and also the neural net is physically in charge of all of our lives in this example

      Except in this case we have 40+ years showing us that not only is the neural net design not working, it is making things worse and worse because the premise on which it operates is fundementally flawed and will never result in what it needs to.

      There is no “gradient in the direction of better results” with the democratic establishment, how the hell do people not see that by now?

      What about the context we’re in right now says that the lesser of two evils has been working? That it will ever produce anything that pushes the country back towards the center?
