Robin: Great point about states with many people having low correlations with what one random person can effect. This is fairly trivially provable.
Utilitarian: Equal priors due to complexity, equal posteriors due to lack of entanglement between claims and facts.
Wei Dai, Eliezer, Stephen, g: This is a great thread, but it’s getting very long, so it seems likely to be lost to posterity in practice. Why don’t the three of you read the paper Neel Krishnaswami referenced, have a chat, and post it on the blog, possibly edited, as a main post?
“The paper I referenced:
Vann McGee (1999)
