Jonathan Newman joins Bob to critique a recent Twitter argument where some were claiming that supercomputers solved the socialist calculation problem.{ai:summary}Well, it seems there's been a hullabaloo on Twitter regarding the socialist calculation problem and supercomputers. Jonathan Newman and Bob had themselves a good ol' critiquing session of this here argument. Some folks were claimin' that these fancy machines could solve the problem, but it seems like there's more to it than that. Bob seemed to think that socialism was doomed from the get-go because it lacked the knowledge necessary for proper economic calculation. While Karras Lambert and Tate Fegley argued that AI could potentially help with economic calculation, it wasn't a complete solution. Seems like folks have a lot to say on this matter, but whether or not the socialist calculation problem can truly be solved remains to be seen.
