What? Either option requires sufficient data. Brute force implies iterating over all combinations until you find the best weights. Back-prop is an optimization technique.

In context of grandparents post.

Brute force just means guessing all possible combinations. A dataset containing most human knowledge is about as brute force as you can get.

I'm fairly sure that Alpha Zero data is generated by Alpha Zero. But it's not an LLM.
