A corollary of this is that you would be able to do this second operationalization, but possibly with the aid of a computer program that you wrote yourself that wasn’t just a copy of the original program. This constraint is slightly ambiguous but I think it shouldn’t be too problematic in practice.
I’m going to assume it’s impossible for me, personally, to outplay the best Go AI I have access to. Given that, the requirement is for me to write a better Go AI than the one I currently have access to.
Of course, that would mean that my new self-written program is now the best Go AI. So then I would be back to square one.
