Researchers have formalized "interestingness" as a heuristic for predicting future progress in AI compression. Their work, grounded in Kolmogorov Complexity and Algorithmic Statistics, suggests that the recency of breakthroughs directly correlates with expected future advancements. The study also found that an Algorithmic Prior is more optimistic than a Length Prior, potentially leading to a quadratic increase in expected discoveries. AI
