2N-x ; 4N-3x

so 8N-7x =0

so N = 7, x = 8

Ans = 7 Even used N and x. Must have gone to same school as AI

A whiteboard.

Pretty simple, but I think it might be interesting to see how long that takes a chatbot to solve.

So why haven't you tried and posted the results?

Thought of another one.

Emma has a number of candies. She has three friends living in three different houses. Before she gives them the candies, she knocks on the door, which immediately doubles the number of candies she has. She can only knock on the door once, and there’s just a single door she knocks in each house. Emma gives each friend the same number of candies and ends up having none after she’s given her third friend candies. Emma had less than ten candies. How many did she have?

I can’t be here after 8 AM. People invite me to a lot of things.

As expected, the AI couldn’t solve it because of the vagueness. Still managed to reason its way to one of the correct answers.

im tryn2wrap my poor brain around quantum gates (python). i coded out all the binary gates. they were FUN ! and not too hard. heres a short vid from years ago. a triple slit experiment (as a borns rule argument) that Urbasi put together. she takes u thru the system. its all sooo random that its hard not to accept that it exists ...and she touches on that. but can a R state also NOT exist ? ...at the same time ? ...wave and/or particle ?

Do you mean "can an existing random state also not exist"?
I wouldn't discount it.

Anyway, Ghostess, you exist and don't exist at the same time don't you? And with this being your special day ....

Ghostess' posts have added randomness.

Nice.

I even collected a minus for that. Wonder why he doesn't mute the sick ones? Is it for comedy effect? We could laugh at the losers but it's repetitive and you can't hear the others joining in.

I dunno if true randomness exists, but all I know is that RNG SUCKS

Many processors (including x86 and AMD) now have TRNGs (True Random Number Generators) built into them. These use things like analog-digital conversion of thermal noise. The random numbers can be directly accessed with special instructions.

It’s funny, because I randomly got interested in RNG Manipulation in Pokemon games. As a result, I found out that luck in video games isn’t even real. The Generation 3 Pokemon games have 4.2 Billion possible RNG states in the game, they’re not random. So if you manage to hit the right frame, you can get any Pokemon at will. It’s REALLY interesting.

Yes provided you process an external source it would probably be impossible to show a difference between EXTRNDNOS and true random.

You should have seen the early ones up to the mid 90s. (I suppose maybe you did) Better to ask your grandmother to emit a random string of numbers.

I think any video game doesn’t actually HAVE true random RNG. I’m pretty sure every Pokemon game ever released has a method to manipulating the RNG to the players advantage. I don’t think programs can be ENTIRELY random, at least ones that are commercially available.

#3606 Fun fact: Pokemon Emerald has a MASSIVE bug with the RNG that sets the initial RNG seed (AKA what the RNG starts with when the game boots up) to 0. So it’s INCREDIBLY easy to RNG Manip compared to other Pokemon games.

im not sure, but i think that the most random thing in the univers are quantum particles

They do look random but probably so does Brownian Motion.
