Log­i­cal Induction

TagLast edit: Aug 3, 2020, 4:04 PM by abramdemski

Logical Induction is a formal theory of reasoning under logical uncertainty, developed by Scott Garrabrant and other researchers. Rationality is defined through a prediction-market analogy. High-quality beliefs are those which are computationally difficult to win bets against. The writeup can be found here.
