coherence-without-ground-truth
leaf/question · drafted
Statement
Coherence guarantees (no sure loss, calibration, logical coherence, reflective stability) give checkable confidence in an AI system's reasoning where alignment lacks ground-truth labels.
Source
The filing session's construction, on public grounds: the coherence notions are de Finetti's no sure loss, calibration (Dawid 1982, The Well-Calibrated Bayesian) and the logical-induction criterion with its reflective properties (Garrabrant et al. 2016, Logical Induction), each checkable without access to the truth of the beliefs it constrains.
Notes
The claim is the filing session's construction; no author has stated it as a claim. It is filed as a shared claim because, on this reading, the lines of the map that take a no-exploitation criterion as the standard of rational progress rest on it. The given edge reads the validity of the li-deference collapse as evidence for the premise: a valid implication from a coherence-style trust notion to instrumental trust is one place where coherence yields a usable guarantee.
A root of updateful-trust-li, the line whose results it reads through its evidence edge.
