    • The ambiguity is load-bearing!
      • A feature, not a bug.

      • It allows us to leverage others' minds to have 1+1 =3
    • Models as they get better at coding and math, will get less good at the unverifiable things that aren't right or wrong.
    • The variance also gives a rich evolutionary field and makes it more likely there's a useful gradient.
