Whether you call this “the problem of induction” or not, I have read an awful lot of literature on “induction” and very little that speaks to or acknowledges this problem.
I don’t think he is. Solomonoff answers the problem of induction (in its classical philosophical form at least) but not the problem this post discusses.
The questions in the post seem to be sub-problems of the question of: how do you build a computable approximation to Solomonoff induction. The literature on that is the literature that deals with compression.
I think you’re posing the problem of induction, which is a classic problem in philosophy.
