Dienstreiseanträge müssen gedruckt in zweifacher Ausfertigung vorliegen, damit sie dann wieder eingescannt werden. Ohne Scan-Robotik geht da gar nichts.

aber genau das steht doch in den DFG Leitlinien

Not disagreeing. I find the results impressive that models first learn by heart until model weights are exhausted, then abstract and compress knowledge by necessity to reuse weights as input entropy exceeds exclusive node capa. IMO that in itself shares a lots w/ "intelligence" however you define it
