On truth statements, they are only as true as the genre of fiction they are written in allow them to be. (which is basically what Rorty says about "truth" [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzynRPP9XkY ]) Mathematical logic is to programming language theory as pure mathematics is to applied mathematics. Your experience calculus looks like (as I mentioned before) of the type the MIRI/CSAIL Lob research group does: Lob's theorem in Friendly AI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMi1KkKCVCg An Introduction to Lob’s Theorem in MIRI Research http://intelligence.org/files/lob-notes-IAFF.pdf @philipthrift -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
