If the model can map an unseen problem to something in its latent space, solve it there, map back and deliver an ultimately correct solution, is it novel? Genuine question, ‘novel’ doesn’t seem to have a universally accepted definition here
Good question, though I would say that there may be different grades of novelty.
One grade might be your example, while something like Gödel's incompleteness theorems or Einstein's relativity could go into a different grade.
