Isn’t decision theory pretty closely related to AIXI stuff? Or other simple frameworks that try to take a stab at the core of intelligence. I would expect something like this to show up in groups who try to understand intelligence from first principles, from more abstract standpoint, rather than more like applied animal breeding.
Then it’s not surprising that the groups that tried to do that, had interest in that particular area.
