I wish more people would just try to do things just like this and blog about their failures.
The published version of a proof is always condensed. And even if you take all the math that has been published in the history of mankind, it’s still small compared to what these models are trained on.
And people only publish the success stories. The data that are really precious are from when someone tries something, and it doesn’t quite work, but they know how to fix it. But they only publish the successful thing, not the process.
Personally, I think failures on their own are valuable. Others can come in and branch off from a decision you made that instead leads to success. Maybe the idea can be applied to a different domain. Maybe your failure clarified something for someone.
I wish more people would just try to do things just like this and blog about their failures.
Came here to say the same thing. Actually, I guess I did say the same thing, just in a much more long-winded form. Needless to say, I concur with you 100%.

Thank you for saying this. I agree which is why I wrote this up.
