Until elegance can be trained through RLVF, it will not be elegant. A lot of problems in AI seem to be finding ways to bring RLVF to more domains, as the current "spikiness" of AI seems to be mostly related to how effective RL is for a particular domain (if you need RLHF you are fucked and it's why it has not gotten better at writing and individual models still have "styles")

This day is a Wednsday in the new AI era, it's meaningless, that's kinda the problem. It's very sad, I think we'll be gone as a species in 5 years tops.

Where are you getting the "go berserk" part? All of what I've read about the Aztec military is that it was highly hierarchical and organized, having special noble (pipiltin) officer schools (the calmecacs[1] where they learned of war and ruling, and the commoner (macehuali) class also having mandatory military training in the telpochcalli[2]. Also, from what I've read in the True History Of The Conquest of New Spain by conquistador Bernal Diaz del Castillo, who participated in it, is that they generally ditched their metal armors rather quickly due to the heat, and instead adopting the indigenous cotton armors, they also mostly adopted indigenous ranged weapons, keeping only their swords and horses by the end of the Conquest. Bernal emphasizes the scale of the armies a lot in his book, and the indigenous allied city-states are incredibly important, specially the siege of Tenochtitlan.
