Nov 3, 2026, 7:17 PM@RnDanger @MattMcNeilShow For context, this is the part of "War Games" when they instruct WOPR to play Tic-Tac-Toe against itself. It then solves the game. Then it resumes its previous instruction to play Global Thermonuclear War, and simulates multiple launch book scenarios, each ending in mutually assured destruction. The lesson to be learned is that there is no opening move that results in a non-catastrophic outcome other than "no launch". WOPR learned. Why can't humans?
