TED-Ed: Can you solve the rogue AI riddle? - Dan Finkel

The video tutorial explains a strategic game where you must shut down an AI named NIM by controlling water levels in a lab. You and NIM take turns lowering the water by 1, 3, or 4 stories, aiming to reach exactly zero. The key to winning is to leave NIM on losing levels, which are multiples of 7 or two more than multiples of 7. By starting at level 25 and lowering the water by 4 stories, you can ensure NIM always faces a losing level, allowing you to win and shut down the AI.
