# Newcomblike Problems
|
|
- http://mindingourway.com/intro-to-newcomblike-problems/. also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcomb%27s_paradox
|
|
- "Today it is a much debated problem in the philosophical branch of [decision theory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_theory).[[3]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcomb%27s_paradox#cite_note-3)"
|
|
- Named after William Newcomb
|
|
- Both the Mirror Token Trade and Newcomb's Problem share a similar
|
|
structure: there is another agent in the environment that knows how you
|
|
reason.
|
|
- We can generalize this to a whole __class__ of problems, known as "Newcomblike problems".
