    That’s why a monkey is used in the thought experiment. Monkeys do think at a low level. As it goes insane over centuries of imprisonment in front of its jailer, it’s likely going to try complex solutions to get out. Think of the hell infinity would really be for this monkey.

      Yes, and given infinite monkeys no doubt they will eventually evolve into something that allows them to escape!
