LessWrong

[edit]

Which articles, other than blog posts on LessWrong, contain discussions of AIXI? Poppingtonic (talk) 21:20, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There are over 500 AIXI papers in Google Scholar. [Google Books returns over 1000 hits on "aixi hutter" (without the quotes) The real question about the Wikipedia article on AIXI is why are so many prominent scholars of artificial general intelligence interested in AIXI yet uninterested in editing here?

probability vs. logic

[edit]

Given that it is unknown how to extend probability to logic (Stanford, russel), in what sense is AIXI coherent? AIXI claims that it is somehow "universal", but how can that claim hold given that computation is based on logic, and probability itself is not universal? How is this weaseled out of? Some kind of lede is needed that can explain why the whole endevour isn't hogwash... 67.198.37.16 (talk) 20:59, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Defining a Universal Turing Machine with FOL axioms is an undergraduate classroom exercise. If you can define a UTM you can define Algorithmic probability. QED Jim Bowery (talk) 16:50, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
