However, if the candidate environment can compute the outputs on its own, without needing to be given the AI’s outputs, the candidate environment does not need code to inject the AI’s outputs into it.
If a candidate environment has no special code to inject AIXI’s outputs, then when AIXI computes expected utilities, it will find that all actions have equal utility in that environment, so that environment will play no role in its decisions.
I should probably do some Python experiments and we then can change this from a debate to a programming problem, which would be much more pleasant.
Ok, but try not to destroy the world while you’re at it. :) Also, please take a closer look at UDT first. Again, I think there’s a strong possibility that you’ll end up thinking “why did I waste my time defending CDT/AIXI?”
