A paper that says: "our approach is simpler than the state of the art". But also does not loudly say "our approach is significantly behind the state of the art on all metrics". Not easy to get published, but I guess putting it as a preprint with a big company's name will help...

There are places in France where the house numbers are based on the distance to the beginning of the block, but it's not that common.

Your parent post meant that a few centuries ago, the american continent was not known, so the known world could be split between east and west.

It's cute that you think your high-school level cypher is probably not seen in the training set of one of the biggest LLMs in the world. Surely no one could have thought of such a cypher, let alone create exercises around it!

No one should ever make claims such as "X is not in <LLM>'s training set". You don't know. Even if your idea is indeed original, nothing prevents someone from having though of it before, and published it. The history of science is full of simultaneous discoveries, and we're talking cutting-edge research.

I'm not sure it's very well aligned with the spirit of copyleft licenses.
