The advice that made AI perform worse #Shorts

What if giving an AI advice made it worse at searching?

The reason is subtle: advice can cut a search short too soon. A navigable history, on the other hand, preserves discarded branches and allows them to be revisited from another angle. The most useful memory for an AI is not always a list of commands; sometimes it is the full evidence of what it tried, including its failures.
