did you know there's a sufficient, probably complete simulacrum of you inside a newcomb predictor? HANG ON WE'LL GET YOU OUT OF THERE

I'm looking at the description of the Newcomb paradox & don't understand why "take box A and storm out" isn't a considered option

I was thinking though, maybe you could coax computation worth more than $1M out of the predictor

this is hard though since the effort is symmetrical; maybe if works if the predictor classically simulates quantum decisions?

the problem I see with your proposal really is it may assume we get multiple gos to extract multiple bits

one bit only twitter.com/allgebrah/stat
you could probably pull major shenanigans with more than one

You have one bit to communicate to the outside. Do you one-AI-box or two-AI-box?

B is also really useful in case the sidewalk is a light-year long but you need to know now
