It’s a clearly defined spec, a clearly defined utility function and a very limited set of building blocks. It’s not trivial, but not super impressive either.
And given the nature of this kind of research and the trackrecord of Chinese scientists in particular, I’d assume it’s getting less and less impressive the deeper you look.
The speed is not impressive, but the fact that did it at all is interesting.
Is it, though?
