The name of New Mexico is funny because it's one of those things that you'd think is really simple (oh, it's it used to be part of old Mexico, so we'll call it New Mexico!), but it's much more complex New Mexico as the name for the area predates Mexico by several hundred years!

The monarchy that was established then started referring to itself as Imperio Mexico, the Mexican Empire, before the federal constitution in 1824 named it for the first time gave it name Estados Unido Mexicanos So New Mexico predates Mexico as a state name for about 260 years

Mild disagreement with this that in the days of yore (handful of months to years ago) you would only ever encounter high effort things, because low effort things would die at the starting gate. The removal of that selection effect does make the correlation between AI use and effort negative.
