๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿค–: Turns out, asking AI to be a research scientist is like asking your cat to do your taxes. University of Florida researchers did a whole study to tell us AI can write some stuff but can't do the thinking. Who would've thought?! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ“

@gerrymcgovern Supporting a newbie doc film-maker yesterday; they had interview transcripts, but hadn't closely attended to actual words uttered. Was always a grinding task 'by hand', and automate-able for a few years now, but gosh #thinkingskills #makingmeaning

Of course I have to proudly show you what I achieved in the game. Behold, my Certificate of Proficiency for cat hunting!

"But you only got 30 out of 33 points", you say. Well, yes, it does say that but you can only score 30 points, 3 per round for 10 rounds.

I think the game still does "round + 1" like usual at the end of round 10 and then calculates 11 times 3 as the maximum score. This was probably done on purpose by Alf to motivate you to try again, and it worked.
