  text: '[summary:  Vinge's Principle says that, [9j in domains complicated enough] that perfect play is not possible, less intelligent agents will not be able to predict the *exact* moves made by more intelligent agents.\n\nFor example, if you knew exactly where [1bx Deep Blue] would play on a chessboard, you'd be able to play chess at least as well as Deep Blue by making whatever moves you predicted Deep Blue would make.  So if you want to write an algorithm that plays superhuman chess, you necessarily sacrifice your own ability to (without machine aid) predict its exact chess moves.\n\nThis doesn't mean we sacrifice our ability to understand *anything* about Deep Blue.  We can still understand that its goal is to win chess games rather than losing them, and [9g predict that whatever actions it takes, they'll eventually lead into a winning board state].]\n\nVinge's Principle says that, [9j in domains complicated enough] that perfect play is not possible, less intelligent agents will not be able to predict the *exact* moves made by more intelligent agents.\n\nFor example, if you knew exactly where [1bx Deep Blue] would play on a chessboard, you'd be able to play chess at least as well as Deep Blue by making whatever moves you predicted Deep Blue would make.  So if you want to write an algorithm that plays superhuman chess, you necessarily sacrifice your own ability to (without machine aid) predict the algorithm's exact chess moves.\n\nThis is true even though, as we become more confident of a chess algorithm's power, we become more confident that it will *eventually* win the chess game.  We become more sure of the game's final outcome, even as we become less sure of the chess algorithm's next move.  This is [9g].\n\nNow consider agents that build other agents (or build their own successors, or modify their own code).  Vinge's Principle implies that the choice to approve the successor agent's design must be made without knowing the successor's exact sensory information, exact internal state, or exact motor outputs.  In the theory of [1mq tiling agents], this appears as the principle that the successor's sensory information, cognitive state, and action outputs should only appear inside quantifiers.  This is [1c1].\n\nFor the rule about fictional characters not being smarter than the author, see [1bt].',
