    But this sounds exactly the sort of thing that machines are better at that people, so it just feels completely unsurprising that it was good at the task.

    Turning multiple dials to manage speed and direction is not normally how humans interact with the world, so we can we pretty shit at it.

    A basic motor is completely designed to turn like this.

    This feels no different to the machine learning tools used to train on Mario a decade ago.
