Assuming that the typing monkeys literally ever have the possibility of only hitting one key at a time, no matter how many times they press two keys at a time and type they will eventually and necessarily, bc of the definition of infinity, type Shakespeare. I don’t know how I can explain this better but I’ll try later when I have some time.

The theorem is only true if monkeys are random. But monkeys are not random, and therefore this cannot be proved true using monkeys.

Luckily this isn’t a mathematical problem, and we don’t need to prove it to be true. Something can be true without being proven.

It can be, but it isn’t.

Believe what you wish. Nobody can make you see the obvious if you bury your head in the sand…
