I think ADT is only described on Vladimir Nesov’s blog (if there) and XDT nowhere findable. ADT stands for Ambient Decision Theory. Unfortunately there’s no comprehensive and easy summary of any of the modern decision theories anywhere. Hopefully Eliezer publishes his TDT manuscript soon.
I coined the name XDT here. I think Anna Salamon and Steve Rayhawk had come up with essentially the same idea prior to that (and have explored its implications more deeply, but not in published form).
Thanks. I couldn’t find any references to ADT on Vladimir Nesov’s blog but I only had a quick scan so maybe I missed it, will have a better look later. And I can now remember that series of comments on XDT but my mind didn’t connect to it, thanks for the link.

DT list, nothing on the blog. Hopefully I’ll write up the current variant (which is conceptually somewhat different) in the near future.
