I answered "no" to your question. Knowledge is not extracted in any
way from belief (assumed or not). knowledge *is* belief, when or in
the world those beliefs are true, but this you can never know as
such.
Since your theory to an infinite number of semi-classical worlds
with different events (and even different physics) it seems that
"true belief" is not a very useful concept.
It is, because by incompleteness, we will have that Bp & p (true
belief) obeys a different logic (an epistemic intuitionist logic)
despite G* knows that it is the same machine, having the same action.
The machine just dont know that, although it can infer it from comp +
a sort of faith in herself.
Every belief is going to have probability zero of being true.
neither Bp nor Bp & p is a priori related to probability. For this
you need []p -> <>p, which is ocrrect for Bp & p, though, and indeed a
physics appears already there, but that is a sort of anomaly (which
confirms what I took as an anomaly in Plotinus, but the machine agrees
with him).
Now, Bp, when present in the nuances, gives the logic of the
corresponding "certainty", so it is trivially a probability one. We
need to extract the logic, and the probability different from 1 are
handled by the mathematics, and is related to the Dp (not Bp). The
probability bears on the accessible "worlds".
The interesting concept is the probability of future events relative
to one's current state.
That's exactly why we need to go from Bp to Bp & Dt (or Bp & Dt & p,
or actually Bp & p). This gives the relevant notion of relative
consistency together with some temporal interpretation.
