Logical Induction is the attempt to reason formally when you have uncertainty about logical truths. Modern probability theory makes the assumption that one is logically omniscient, not having uncertain about whether a given number is prime or whether a certain theorem is true. This seems like a hole in our basic understanding of reasoning. In recent years Scott Garrabrant and other researchers have developed the first formal account of how to reason under logical uncertain (the writeup can be found here).
