How far does this go? Does this mean if I e.g. had stupid questions or musings about Q learning, I shouldn’t talk about that in public in case I accidentally hit upon something or provoked someone else to say something?
None of the things you mention seem at all problematic to me. I’m mostly opposed to the mood of “Ooh, a puzzle! Hey let’s all put our heads together and try to figure it out!!” Apart from that mood, I think it’s pretty hard to go wrong in this case, unless you’re in a position to personally find a new piece of the puzzle yourself. If you’re just chatting with no particular domain expertise, ok sure maybe you’ll inspire some idea in a reader, but that can happen when anyone says anything. :-P
