Good regulator theoremThe good regulator theorem is a theorem conceived by Roger C. Conant and W. Ross Ashby that is central to cybernetics. It was originally stated as "every good regulator of a system must be a model of that system".[1] That is, any regulator that is maximally simple among optimal regulators must behave as an image of that system under a homomorphism.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_regulator_theoremA Straightforward Explanation of the Good Regulator Theorem — LessWrongThis post was written during the agent foundations fellowship with Alex Altair funded by the LTFF.
