Oh I totally agree that watching things again is usually boring. This makes sense for the Bayesian superintelligence too. I want to separate this from the spoilers question.
Uh, what? That’s like saying ‘I have a puzzle. But if you can solve it, then you can write a program that can solve it, without you ever seeing the puzzle.’
For example, if you know how to differentiate (in the calculus sense I mean), you can look at a differentiation problem and know whether you know how to do it vs whether there is some twist you don’t know how to deal with. Same with any type of math you know really well.
