For any agent, I can create a GLUT that solves problems just as well (provided the vast computing resources necessary to store it), by just duplicating that agent's actions in all of its possible states.
Surely its performance would be appalling on most problems - vastly inferior to a genuinely intellligent agent implemented with the same hardware technology - and so it will fail to solve many of the problems with time constraints. The idea of a GLUT seems highly impractical. However, if you really think that it would be a good way to construct an intelligent machine, go right ahead.
This is for anyone in the LessWrong community who has made at least some effort to read the sequences and follow along, but is still confused on some point, and is perhaps feeling a bit embarrassed. Here, newbies and not-so-newbies are free to ask very basic but still relevant questions with the understanding that the answers are probably somewhere in the sequences. Similarly, LessWrong tends to presume a rather high threshold for understanding science and technology. Relevant questions in those areas are welcome as well. Anyone who chooses to respond should respectfully guide the questioner to a helpful resource, and questioners should be appropriately grateful. Good faith should be presumed on both sides, unless and until it is shown to be absent. If a questioner is not sure whether a question is relevant, ask it, and also ask if it's relevant.
