[Article] Decoding Anagrammed Texts Written in an Unknown Language and Script

Usually the first thing I want to look at is the code (and unfortunately, I don't have time to look at their code, at least not any time soon, but I was happy to see it's available for perusal).

Many coders claim "AI technology" when in fact it's not. If it learns and self-modifies, then we're getting into AI territory. If it's a set of rules and a lot of brute-force lookups and processing, not so much.

The algorithm is described in their paper and it isn't AI in any sense of the word, nor is it claimed to be in the paper.   You are not allowed to view links.

AI doesn't necessarily involve learning, though if a system learns, it's usually AI.
