Thank you everyone for sharing your knowledge of an in-joke of a 1993 computer game in the replies

It’s not quite true about using the same algorithms — I don’t think LLMs generally use 2D convolution layers, for example — but the larger insight here is rather profound.

To be fair I think A View to a Kill has the better story, villain, actors, pacing and gags.
But both are worth watching, especially for the tech billionaire criminal masterminds. Maybe almost too real!

I got a lot of “but it’s business people making programmers do this”, implying that software engineers want to be ethical but can’t.
That’s the software engineers who just stole the term “engineer” from another profession that has very strict certification requirements including mandatory ethics classes.

“Corollary 1 (AoE II is Turing-Complete). Let I be an instance of AoE II with two players p0,p1. Assume p0 has two markets, a town centre, a trade cart, six villagers, and five farms; while p1 has a scout unit and only attacks p0’s buildings. Then if I has no time or size limits and the terrain allows for buildings everywhere, the game session in I is Turing-complete.”
