Critique of standard probability frameworks
a lesswrong article argues that standard probability frameworks, including subjective bayesianism, are inadequate for handling concepts like infinite ethics and anthropics.
this post initiates a sequence challenging fundamental concepts in decision theory, specifically attacking standard definitions of probability. the author dismisses both the frequentist view as inapplicable to unique events and the classical bayesian view as insufficiently rigorous when faced with extreme claims like the existence of bigfoot. by citing limitations in handling induction and infinite ethics, the work sets the stage for a proposed unified framework to replace traditional probability concepts in future posts.
