Can You Run Recursion on Ideas?

3•codenighter•2w ago
I’ve only been thinking about this idea for the past two or three days, but it has completely hijacked my head.

what if we apply recursion not to numbers or paths, but to abstract ideas?

This post is an attempt to think about idea generation as a constrained state-space search, inspired by recursion in computer science.

Thanks brother, but this blog is exploring a slightly different idea.
wumms•2w ago
You’ve set up artificial selection in idea-space with yourself as the designer. What if AI could learn the rules of coherence from examples instead?
codenighter•2w ago
Even if coherence is learned implicitly, choosing a language, model, or representation already defines a bounded idea-space. The bias doesn’t disappear, it just moves into data and architecture. So my question isn’t whether coherence should be explicit or learned, but whether absolute exploration of an abstract idea-space is possible at all once any boundaries are imposed.
wumms•2w ago
Guess absolute exploration hits the heat-death limit. You are hinting at a Drake-equation for bounded idea-space to guide AI: anchors x pressures x connectors x depth. Shift the boundaries for novelty.
codenighter•2w ago
Yeah, that’s a good way to put it. Absolute coverage feels like heat death, but changing the factors changes the space itself. That’s the part I’m still stuck on.
