- mertdumenci shares a counterintuitive realization: test-time compute doesn't have to be one autoregressive sequence eventually producing the answer
- It could instead be 10,000 instances of a model sampling and influencing each other through a message board
- Suggests test-time compute may converge toward massively parallel, agent-style interaction rather than single-chain reasoning
