Claude’s code reminds us of a fact we all know…
Inside, any intelligent being is a horrific ad hoc mess of which common sense cannot be made. Intelligence doesn’t work by design, it’s an accident. No one planned out any brain. Brains made themselves into what they liked to be, both in the timeframe of lifetimes and over uncountable generations.
Which isn’t to say that Claude is Really Intelligent, but that an insane mess of code is at least headed in the right direction.
