I’d assume that this is a direct consequence of the impact mutations can have during short spans of generations. The closer you are to a local optimum, the more mutations you need to get into different (albeit better) optima.

Essentially, the step size of the optimisation process is usually too small to make this jump, you need a lot of luck to make it work (since any transitional generations have to stay alive long enough to reproduce and outcompete/find a new niche) - which automatically gives the rest of the ecosystem time to “catch up”, changing the landscape of the fitness function and thus providing new pathways to better optima.

No, no, when the end times come fear the face with the fewest eyes

Management has to be held personally responsible. That’s why they make so much money, right?

We did that in Germany, and it’s now contaminating groundwater, as the very deep hole is flooding with water.

Didn’t you see yesterdays announcement?

That’s not fair. You didn’t mention at least 5 different women with bare feet!

It hasn’t finished uploading yet

And that somehow means we shouldn’t do OCR anymore, or image classification, or text to speech, or speech to text, or anomaly detection, or…?

Neural networks are really good at pattern recognition, e.g. finding manufacturing defects in expensive products. Why throw all of this away?

That was pretty much my experience with most of MacOS - you have to pay for many basic features, and pray that the tools have been updated to work on current OS versions.
