IN MY OPINION Artificial Intelligence instructions are total rubbish, writes Keith Gudgin.

If you read through it you will find many things like:

Open the paddles on the higher gates using the windlass (a tool to wind the gear mechanism that opens or closes the paddles) to let the water out.

Wait for the water level to equalize with the lower part of the canal.

Opening top gate paddles never lets water out

Assuming by higher gate they mean the top gate then opening the higher (top) gate paddles never lets water OUT of a lock. And, opening the higher (top) gate paddles will never equalise the lock to the lower part of the canal!

If anyone tried to follow this rubbish they'd not get very far and probably end up draining the pound?
