Statement

The system one would build to learn and serve uncertain human values is an updateless bargaining construction between value hypotheses, Geometric UDT or a successor, so the updateless theory is the design theory of value learning.

Source

Geometric UDT (LessWrong, 2025), cited in projects/deference/faf-cleanroom-2026-10-02/sources/unbounded-embedded/01-primary/summer-research-plan-2026--research-ideas-may-2026.md, section Updatelessness; reading Geometric UDT as the design theory of value learning is the filing session's.

Notes

Compatible with pic-values-updateful if Geometric UDT counts as updateful about values in the May 2026 sense; that is the overlap between the two pictures.
