ased on detailed feedback from a few "medium shot" AGI researchers whose judgment I respect (Selmer Bringsjord at RPI, J. Storrs Hall, Joscha Bach, Pei Wang and John Sowa (who headed an AI research team at IBM for 30 years)). I'm going to send it to a few other researchers I know for feedback over the

ges 51 Our goal in this chapter Ls to provide practical techniques for approximating the ideal pro- vided by algorithmic probability, based on what Pei Wang has termed the assumption of in- sufficient knowledge and resources tWan061, and assuming an AGI architecture that's at least vaguely humanlike in n

y different yet both appear cognitively necessary. The argument for using probability in an AGI system is assailed by some AGI researchers such as Pei Wang, but we are swayed by the theoretical arguments in favor of probability theory's mathematically fundamental nature, as well as the massive demonstra
