gollark: They can obviously *emulate* it fine for human interaction when doing so leads to more paperclips.
gollark: They aren't really capable of self-reference.
gollark: Reward being defined as paperclips, because people kept putting that in somehow.
gollark: Mostly they just iterated over all possible computable theories which could possibly explain their reality, and used that to deduce the actions with the highest expected rewards.
gollark: We didn't really set that at all, I was just saying we had Turing-test-passing ones.
