       @SuricrasiaOnline you really sold me on a universe where this actually worksi have to be a smartaleck student and ask if the diviner can answer questions about its own behavior in the future...maybe that'd just become an unhelpful gaussian

       @SuricrasiaOnline maybe there's some trickery one can do with bayes theorem to pick these questions apart

       @SuricrasiaOnline i can imagine this hybrid system that's an 80's style lisp machine with a whole database of rules and symbolic reasoning, that's driving a diviner device. twach

       @SuricrasiaOnline i can imagine this hybrid system that's an 80's style lisp machine with a whole database of rules and symbolic reasoning, that's driving a diviner device. it could automatically derive which questions to divine, do that, and then do the math for you
