@dijumx @whitequark @0xabad1dea years ago I stumbled on a big-ass spreadsheet full of examples where systems tasked with a problem find an "optimal" solution by finding exploits.
I remember most of it being artificial life simulators where the creatures evolved to abuse the rules of the simulation or breaking the physics, but there were a few examples of exploiting real-world imperfections too.
Whish I could find it again.
