As an agent when you think about the aspects of the future that you yourself may be able to influence, your predictions have to factor in what actions you will take. But your choices about what actions to take will in turn be influenced by these predictions. 

To achieve an equilibrium you are restricted to predicting a future such that your predicting it will not cause you to also predict yourself taking actions that will prevent it (otherwise you would have to change predictions). 

Do you have an example for that? It seems to me you're describing circular process, in which you'd naturally look for stable equilibria. Basically prediction will influence action, action will... (read more)

(I'll admit, there's another reason for programmers to want to use AI even if it did make them worse at their jobs: it outsources some of the most unpleasant programming labor, so even if it's slower, it's worth it in the eyes of a programmer because their experience of programming feels better when they use AI because they didn't spend a lot of time doing tasks they didn't enjoy doing, like typing out the code changes they already figured out in their head.)

Basically that's proposing to take the programmer job description and move it from hands-on write the code yourself to hands-off review and adjust the code the AI agents are writing.

Many... (read more)
