A decent introduction to the natural abstraction hypothesis, and how testing it might be attempted. A very worthy project, but it isn’t that easy to follow for beginners, nor does it provide a good understanding of how the testing might work in detail. What might consist a success, what might consist a failure of this testing? A decent introduction, but only an introduction, and it should have been part of a sequence or a longer post.

I’m curious if you’d looked at this followup (also nominated for review this year) http://lesswrong.com/posts/dNzhdiFE398KcGDc9/testing-the-natural-abstraction-hypothesis-project-update
I have looked at it, but ignored it when commenting on this post, which should stand on its own (or as part of a sequence).
Fair. Fwiw I’d be interested in your review of the followup as a standalone.
Here’s the review, though it’s not very detailed (the post explains why):

Yup, makes sense. Thank you!
