New theory separates prediction, compression, and empowerment in AI agency

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A new paper proposes a theoretical framework for understanding agency in AI systems operating under partial observability. The research introduces the concept of 'bridge interfaces' to model how agents interact with their environment through controllable parameters and environmental states. The paper proves a separation between prediction, compression, and empowerment, suggesting that effective AI design should distinguish between identifying hidden states, refining interfaces, and achieving task-relevant control. AI
