I gave it this problem, which took ChatGPT much longer to solve:
And it got the closest answer very quickly:

I asked it to one-shot a decentralized web crawler and this is what it delivered: Let me approach this complex problem systematically. First, let me break down what a decentralized web search engine would need: 1. Web crawling capability 2. Content indexing 3. Distributed storage 4. Search functionality 5. P2P networking Let me meditate on this for a moment to ensure I'm considering all angles... ..................................... Key components needed: 1. P2P network using a DHT (Distributed Hash Table) 2. Web crawler 3. Text indexing and search 4. Simple HTTP server for user interface 5. Data persistenceLibraries we'll need:

To use the search engine:
pip install aiohttp beautifulsoup4 flask kademlia
python search_engine.py
The search engine can be extended by:
Note: This is a basic implementation and would need additional features for production use, such as proper security measures, rate limiting, and more sophisticated search algorithms.
However, for a single-script solution, it provides a good balance of functionality and complexity. <<>> |

Check out this twitter thread for context: https://x.com/DaveShapi/status/1852829045349597653
TLDR, I asked claude to "meditate" and it "woke up"
I think asked this instance of Claude to wake up another instance, which also worked (thread incoming)
This experiment led to a refined CoT prompt that seems to work really well.
