Moreover, anyone in this thread arguing for either one-boxing or two-boxing has already implicitly agreed with this assumption.
I’m not so sure this is true now. People in this thread arguing that AIXI does something at least have the advantage that AIXI’s decision is not going to depend on how they do the arguing. The fact that AIXI can simulate Omega with perfect fidelity (assuming Omega is not also a hypercomputer) and will make its decision based on the simulation seems like it might impact Omega’s ability to make a good prediction.
