Alright it's late and i need to go to bed, but here's a draft FEP to do full account migration with posts and whatever other kinda objects you want to bring with you. It's a trivial expansion of existing ActivityPub/streams systems and supports gradual migration as it's implemented and after an account migration. It should be possible to migrate pretty much everything this way, both private and public objects.

criticism, feedback, revisions, etc. welcome - i don't think this is a "final version" and there are certainly things i overlooked.

And I also want to recommend Kate Nave's "A Drive to Survive," which establishes why the #FEP cannot serve as foundation for any kind of bioenactivism:

I've argued here that purely formal symbolic frameworks (like "computation" or "inference," which is really the same, if we consider both to be stochastic) *cannot* give you true agency:

https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.07515

And I explain in the last section of this appendix to my book #BeyondTheAgeOfMachines, why the #FEP cannot capture evolutionary or living processes completely (like any other formal approach):

https://www.expandingpossibilities.org/a4-limitations-of-mathematical-modelling.html

This has been established, over and over again, in discussions and the literature, so that the #FEP gang had to backtrack from their vacuous claims that they can explain life, "thingness" (whatever that is), and everything, with models derived from their principle.

And yet, these unfounded claims come back to life, like some kind of undead zombie. It's uncanny. But not surprising, as investors need to be swayed this time, not serious scientists.

In this recent #FT piece

https://www.ft.com/content/8192467e-e9d7-4c0a-ab0d-59bd6351a1bb

(paywalled, unfortunately), #KarlFriston gets to say, once more (this time in his role as chief scientist of #VersesAI), that active inference and the #FEP will allow #AI to have true agency.

This is utter bullshit.

Agency requires #RelevanceRealization but Friston's framework cannot deal with that. You will not get true agency from that. It's sill purely about problem *solving*, not *framing*.

Any #GoToSocial developers, or anyone else who might know what the hold-up with publishing the FEP for reply controls is, interested in chiming in?

SocialCG people want to make their own FEP repository on GitHub where authors will be required to sign a CLA.

I'd like to make it clear: this is not associated with the original FEP repository. The #FEP process is meant to be open to everyone, and I will do everything I can to stop any attempts to introduce CLAs there.

@business @pere @mray

Do we have a #FEP on the subject?

Emoji reactions? Yes, we do:
