#3>This scientific field is called universal artificial intelligence
How many times do we need to re-define the same concept? Artificial Intelligence, Human Level Artificial Intelligence, Artificial General Intelligence, Strong Artificial Intelligence etc....
Lets pick one as a community and stick with it. I thought AGI was in the lead there recently what with the conference, journal and high amount of web searches but apparently that isn't enough.
Beyond that, I would like to see how they make their algorithm narrow for the narrow application of the Pac-Man game while keeping it generalizable. My guess is that they don't and this algo ends up being a "starting point" for narrow AI applications to rest on. In that case it's fine and interesting, but doesn't pass the test to integrating specificity within a general learning model.

I have been following this for a while and have taken the time to understand it in a little detail. While it does not provide the 'answers', it does frame the question of 'what is an intelligent machine?' in a very precise manner. It's interesting work, what it needs is for someone to now work out how to build much better models and plug them into the framework provided by AIXI.

#5Am I the only one that gets a bit of a chill watching an UFAI play a game where it runs from its pursuers collecting resources until it gains the power to kill them?

#6This article is powerful. The idea of working to blend our philisophical theorems into mathematical modeling is brilliant and should be obvious.
Their definition of intelligence is also extremely precise and gives me a new way to look at the world.

#7Surely, it will be built faster if it is open source.

To be sincere, I don't know what kind of Pac Man implementation was that. In the original game, each ghost has a personality [1], the ones in the video seem to just wander aimlessly, so it doesn't really tell much about strength of the algorithm to beat the game because it's not the same game.
So, to comment on your dystopian prediction, I'm not sure this algorithm would do any better against humans, unless all we do is wander aimlessly too ;)

True, but it doesn't kill them very efficiently.

#10How is this better than applying the minimum description length principle formalization of Occam's razor? (from 1978 [1])
I admit that I didn't spend time to really delve into it but nothing in this article strikes me as particularly ground breaking.
