Mirror Horizon: Viable Path Entropy as a Measure of Bounded Reflection
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
arXiv:2607.11937v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mirror Theory proposes that an intelligent system should be studied not only by what it represents, but by what coherent continuations it can sustain under repeated reflection. We make this claim operational through \emph{viable path entropy} (VPE), a finite-budget measure of verified continuation capacity. Given a mirror state, a rollout protocol, a verifier, and a mode map, VPE decomposes bounded capability into two parts: the probability of…
