I specified playing against your own clone. Under that situation the identity is, in fact, perfect. It is not knowably perfect. But a Bayesian naturalistic reasoner can estimate an extremely high degree of correlation, and take actions based on that estimate.The real flaw in the AIXI discussion was Eliezer's statement:Lee Corbin can work out his entire policy in step (2), before step (3) occurs, knowing that his synchronized other self - whichever one he is - is doing the same.He was assuming that a human could know that another mind would behave identically. Of course they cannot, but can only estimate other mind's intentions based on observations.
