IIRC Kobyashi maru incident involves a no-win situation where you change the rules of the game to create a winning situation. How are we looking at a Kobyashi maru incident here? Can you explain?

Shape rotation is often used as a proxy for G.

The shapes generally progress in difficulty until they are deemed “impossible” for any human shape rotator to figure out.

If you reduce the problem to counting instead of shape rotation (3D matrix multiplication) many humans can “shape rotate” to impossibly high levels of IQ

Wow! Nice way to look at it. Appreciate the explanation.
