The idea of rewarding an artificial scientist or artist for compression progress
In a reply, one account says the intrinsic reward is proportional to the rate of change in how compressible the system finds the data.
TLDR
One account argues that an artificial scientist or artist can make compression progress even if it cannot find the shortest program that computes its observations. In a reply, it says the system gets an intrinsic reward proportional to the first derivative of the data’s subjective compressibility—how quickly that compressibility changes.
