Thanks! I read the intro and conclusion of this (and very quickly scanned the stuff in between to see if anything looked surprising at a glance, which it didn’t). If I TL;DR’d it as “here are a bunch of reasons decision theory doesn’t work in the real world” would I be wrong?

i would TL;DR it as "here are a bunch of problems a decision theory would need to solve in order to work in the real world", where "work in the real world" means we can use the concepts from it to think non-confusedly about the properties of real AI systems

So, at what point should one look at the list of apparently-very-hard problems and say “this looks like the wrong approach, let’s try Plan B”? For me that was 1987: https://www.aaai.org/Papers/AAAI/1987/AAAI87-048.pdf …

With Plan B being to become a Buddhist and start a blog about nebulosity?

I'd like to hear you two debate this on
@DeconstructingU and then I want to read a 10,000-word essay about the debate by@everytstudies. This is the nerdiest sentence I have written to date.2 replies 0 retweets 13 likes -

I'm certainly happy to record you two talking about almost anything. However, I'm not really into "debates." Let's favor kindness in conversation.

I guess a rap battle is out of the question then :-) Love and respect to all of you. Your conversations and writings make my life richer.

I have SRDD (Severe Rhythm Deficiency Disorder), so regrettably my attempts at rapping have always been abject failures!
