It’s an interesting way of thinking.
- “Thought type” (a word that came up with a mistranslation)
-
If we express it in a mathematical way, it means that when the parameter (development level) of X approaches infinity, X approaches Y.
- Assuming that X “develops” as t increases:
- As t approaches infinity, X(t) approaches Y.
- It’s not that X becomes Y, but rather that X is indistinguishable from Y.

The definition of “sufficient” is unclear.
- Is this the image of “sufficient” in mathematics?
The following is a derivative work.

A sufficiently advanced notebook is indistinguishable from a textbook.
-
- I feel like this is incorrect.
- Rather, I think it’s more like “The set of sufficiently advanced notebooks = Ideal knowledge of oneself ∩ Knowledge not found in textbooks”.
- A notebook is what remains when you remove what is written in textbooks from the ideal knowledge you have.
- (Ignoring the role of Note’s second definition)
-
A sufficiently advanced Google search is indistinguishable from my own knowledge.
- If knowledge can be obtained unconsciously and quickly by searching, it could be called “my own knowledge”.
- It’s getting closer to Googling, I suppose.
-
Highly developed friendship is indistinguishable from romance.
- There seems to be a webcomic about that.
