What do you mean by definitive events?
I guess the first problem I see with my approach is that the movement of the
window is also a hypothesis. I need to analyze it in more detail and see how
the tree of hypotheses affects the hypotheses regarding the es on the
windows.
What I believe is that
Actually, Fibonacci numbers can be computed without loops or recursion.
int fib(int x) {
return round(pow((1+sqrt(5))/2, x)/sqrt(5));
}
unless you argue that loops are needed to compute sqrt() and pow().
The brain and DNA use redundancy and parallelism and don't use loops because

Last week I came up with a sketch that I felt showed that Solomonoff
Induction was incomputable *in practice* using a variation of Cantor's
Diagonal Argument. I wondered if my argument made sense or not. I will
explain why I think it did.
First of all, I should have started out by saying

Actually, I just realized that there is a way to included inductive

which hypotheses in the past were successful, and therefore which hypothesis

Jim,
There is a simple proof of convergence for the sum involved in defining the
probability of a given string in the Solomonoff distribution:
At its greatest, a particular string would be output by *all* programs. In
this case, its sum would come to 1. This puts an upper bound on the sum.
Since

Yes to one - nice to see an AGI-er finally starting to join up the dots,
instead of simply dismissing the brain's massive difficulties in maintaining
a train of thought.

I'd argue that mathematical operations are unnecesary,
we don't even have integer support inbuilt.
I'd disagree. is a mathematical operation, and in combination can
