The expected reward of a reinforcement learner over a universal (algorithmic) distribution of computable environments. A universal distribution favors simpler environments, such that if the description length is n bits, its probability is 1/2^n. https://arxiv.org/abs/0712.3329 Hutter also proved that the optimal strategy is not computable. That strategy, called AIXI, is to guess the simplest environment consistent with observation. It is not computable because testing all possible environments against observation means excluding the ones that run forever So the best we can do is train an intelligence over a subset of practical environments. Now can you explain to me briefly what consciousness is? ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/Ta8cf1690f2bebe0e-Mf40151b3b882761be7d86a79 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
