"Naturalized induction" is actually a mathmatical way of saying "AGI". And requesting that there be MIRI(x) workshops on naturalized induction is requesting that MIRI include actual AGI design in its scope.
Which, for the record, I agree with. I have never donated to SIAI/MIRI, although I almost did back in the day when they were funding OpenCog (I merely lacked money at the time). I will not contribute to MIRI -- money or time -- until they do bring into scope public discussion of workable AGI designs.
Well, firstly, it's not a complete agent in the slightest: it lacks a decision theory and a utility function ;-).
MIRI already includes naturalized induction in its scope, quite explicitly. There's just not a lot of discussion because nobody seems to have come up with a very good attack on the problem yet.
