And they're like, they're learning.

So I guess the way that you describe it is like in the old days, it required skill and talent, a card sense, right?

That was the only way to become good.

Good study habits, a good work ethic in that regard can make you like a really good player, even if you aren't all that talented or gifted.

Having a good work ethic is a talent, right?

Not necessarily card sense, but if you're able to put in the work and study from these solvers, you essentially have the perfect study tool now that we didn't have in my day.

You try your best.

So again-

Solvers are imperfect as well in terms of the way the humans utilize them, right?

Because you can give solvers a certain number of inputs in terms of what you want it to solve, but a solver can think on many, many levels.
