    Wait… am I misunderstanding this or are they asking you to just sit there and roll dice till you get all ones on 5 D6’s?

      so there’s the number on the left and then on the right you have to use the arrows to scroll through until you find the picture with the dice that add up to the number on the left so you basically have to do maths like 10 times in a row there’s not a set number of dice, i think - i can’t remember but i think that one was like a 1, a 1, a 2, and a 1 or something.

        Ah, okay.

        So it’s just a “find the right picture” rather than “roll dice till you get a roll of five”. That’s still annoying, but a lot less insane.

          It’s “provide is with reinforcement learning data to train AI’s how to read numbers in an image.”

          It’s not less insane. Some of the puzzles will have huge double digit numbers, and they make you solve multiple puzzles to progress. Sony makes you solve 16 of these before barely moving your customer service request forward and delaying you further.

        It’s interesting how some people just can’t communicate concisely
