Stranger things have happened

To be fair, that isn't half the answer it's like 99% of the answer.

They clarified above that it provided the full answer though.

The deepmind team has a history of being misleading. The great StarCraft 2 strategist bot is still in mind.

What’s the story with that bot? Always thought it was cool. Was that all smoke and mirrors?

I think maybe parent comment is referring to it essentially just employing a zerg rush but with the speed and reaction time of an AI? Not 100% sure... Unrelated, iirc the starcraft functionality was an early example of generalizing a pretrained NN, alphaGO, and showing that it could adapt to learn and defeat games across strategic domains, especially after it learned so much strategy from the most difficult, widely played, and most strategically-varied physical game available.

This falls under extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof and we have seen nothing of the sort.
