That’s not just an assumption; that’s the null hypothesis, the default position. Sure, you can challenge it if you want, but if you do, you’re going to have to provide some evidence why you think there’s going to be a qualitative difference.
I have already pointed out that the best AI systems currently existing are not cut down infinite systems.
And even if there is some such difference, it’s still unlikely that we’re going to get literally zero insights about the problem from studying AIXI. That’s an extremely strong absolute claim, and absolute claims are almost always false.
Something doesn’t have to be completely worthless to be sub optimal.
